Addressing GIS personnel requirements: A model for education and training
AbstractThe proliferation of geographic information systems (GIS) in the public and private sectors has been restricted by a shortage of trained personnel, the requirements for which vary from system to system; from application to application. Based on a classification of GIS-related jobs, a need for a variety of curricula has been identified. While GIS courses must be offered broadly to sensitize-related disciplines to the potential of this technology, full and comprehensive programs cannot be offered everywhere and specialty schools, colleges and universities must be available to provide this in-depth exposure. Throughout North America and Europe, a number of centres, institutes and laboratories have been established with this objective in mind. Since 1985, an intensive training program in GIS has been offered at the graduate level by the College of Geographic Sciences in Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia, Canada. Emphasis is placed on practical aspects of GIS which facilitates the transition from classroom to workplace. Supported by state-of-the-art GIS hardware and software, this program is a very effective model for GIS education and training.
