Geospatial information is everywhere, at everyone’s fingertips and URISA as an organization has been at the forefront for the past 50 years, through global technology and social shifts. In the time it took you to pull up the description of this conference, perhaps on your phone, tablet or laptop, you have already considered the conference location, investigated the good eats and conference events, and mapped all of your indoor and outside activities. URISA connects members and partners with the educational, networking and collaboration resources that professionals need to evolve geospatial tools and solutions that respond to real places in real time.
Join the GIS Community in Toronto, Ontario for a powerful, collective exchange of GIS knowledge!

Creating an attendee profile within Sched DOES NOT REGISTER you for the conference or specific workshops. You must register for the conference here.
Note: If you get a phone call from someone claiming to be from the Westin Harbour Castle saying that there is now a cheaper rate... just hang up. It is a scam.
A gap exists between university programs and the professional world, one which could be bridged through spreading of knowledge that might allow students to customize their educational programs and experiences. This focus group session will be an initial discussion for those at any stage in their career and will focus on students and young professionals, giving them the opportunity to express their thoughts and ideas to help begin building a list of questions and informational needs that could help bridge the gap that occurs between university and career.
