<p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>February 2, 2010 (Des Plaines, IL) – URISA is
pleased to announce the only 2010 dates for the URISA Leadership Academy (ULA),
where GIS Leaders Teach GIS Leadership. The ULA will be presented in Baltimore,
Maryland, June 14-18, 2010. <br>
<br>
Attend the URISA Leadership Academy for specific and important training on GIS
leadership. The entire faculty of the ULA is comprised of Certified GIS
Professionals (GISPs) with proven experience leading both public and private
sector organizations of all types and sizes. Learn from their experiences and
from those of your fellow attendees in the ULA's interactive classroom setting.
<br>
<br>
• &quot;I've been working in the GIS field for 15 years and this was, by far,
the most valuable and comprehensive training I have received. No matter how
much you think you know about GIS management, you will learn more than you ever
thought possible.&quot; - Scott A Weisman, GISP, GIS Technical Services
Manager, Tallahassee Leon County (FL) GIS - ULA Graduate, December 2009 <br>
<br>
• &quot;I felt that the ULA truly authenticated the change in mentality from
being a general worker to a true geospatial professional, or leader. It really
boosted a change in attitude for me.&quot; - Craig Barraclough, GISP, GIS
Director, Park County (CO) GIS - ULA Graduate, June 2008 <br>
&nbsp; <br>
Make plans to attend the ULA today. Participation is limited due to the
classroom format of the event. For details on the ULA program, registration and
travel, visit www.urisa.org/ula <br>
