Call for GEOINT 2023 Symposium Training Submissions
USGIF is offering the opportunity to conduct training and education sessions during the GEOINT 2023 Symposium, May 21-24, in St. Louis, Missouri.
USGIF individual or organizational members and designated representatives from USGIF collegiate accredited programs may apply to present a one-hour class related to global GEOINT and national security-related topics.
The purpose of these training sessions is for geospatial intelligence subject matter experts to provide a cross-sectional, short training on competencies and/or knowledge tied to GEOINT applications, technology, policy, and tradecraft of particular interest to our community. All training sessions are learning opportunities for attendees, not commercial presentations. We will provide verified attendees with Certificates of Participation.
There are two training and education categories:
1. Technology Agnostic: may include (but not limited to) policy, generalized technology, models, methodologies, and frameworks that can be interoperable among various systems. We will prioritize topics related to the Symposium theme: The Foundation of Intelligence.
2. Hands-on training: skills-specific training in the latest commercial software and/or tools.
While we allow specific organizational software, hardware, and tools for short case study demonstrations, presenters should limit organizational promotion to one introductory slide. We will reject all sales pitch presentations (more than one slide about the company and products).
Apply: To be considered to present a training at GEOINT 2023, submit the following required items to [email protected] no later than February 10.
Please state which training category you are applying for (technology agnostic or hands-on). If the instructor is not creating the course, please provide the course creator’s experience, biography, and contact information.
