The National Conference on Geography Education provides an excellent means of networking with over 600 colleagues at primary, secondary, and university levels, as well as those in government and industry.  ESRI staff and some of our colleagues are teaching two days of hands-on GIS at this year’s conference in Dearborn, Michigan.  While some adjustments may be made before the final program is issued, the following workshops are planned.  See http://www.ncge.org/ for the latest information.  We will also staff an exhibit at the conference and look forward to the opportunity to speak with you one-on-one about the implementation of GIS at all levels of the curriculum.
