Collect GISP Points at GIS Day Events and MRGAC Meetings

GISP certification points can be collected through participation with a GIS Day event. They can also be collected for participation with MRGAC quarterly meetings. Below is the breakdown of available points:

• Conference / Event Attendance - 0.1 EDU-3
• Event Participation / Moderation (Presentation) - 1 CON X
• Event Organizer - 2 CON W

You can collect points for all three categories, for instance, if you organize, present at, and attend the event, you could collect 3 CON points and 0.1 EDU-3 points. The more you participate, the more you earn.

As for documentation, point claims of 2 points or less do not require documentation until December 31st, 2008. At that time, a letter from the event organization would be sufficient. We have talked about some official letter head for MRGAC, perhaps we can discuss all of this at the December meeting. For more information, please visit:
