Hi Kelly,
I'm so sorry I missed this when it came in! We do discuss the GISP
certification with advanced certificate students, and the program itself
counts for EDU points. However, as Gretchen mentioned, certification also
requires experience and contributions to the profession. While we do our
best to get students to do things like participate in conferences and to
apply GIS in the workforce, they are not included in the certificate, per
se.
