About GIS Educators Day


GIS Educators Day, sponsored by NEARC and Esri, is a full-day conference devoted exclusively to topics and issues pertaining to the use of GIS and other geospatial technologies in K-12, college, and informal education.

Whether you're a K-12 or college educator, an experienced GIS user or a newcomer who wants to learn about the educational possibilities of this powerful tool, you'll want to put this outstanding regional event on your "Must Do" list for 2015.

GIS Educators Day is a one-day pre-conference to NEARC's annual professional user conference which will run from November 8 - November 11 at the Hilton Burlington Hotel, Burlington, VT. GIS Educators Day will feature hands-on computer labs, presentations, and participant-driven discussions on a range of resources, projects, and topics.
