Association of Earth Science Editors 53rd Annual Meeting Regina, Saskatchewan

The 53rd annual meeting of the Association of Earth Science Editors will take place in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, September 4 to 7, 2019. AESE meetings are a wonderful way to learn about earth science editing, publishing and communication. Our meetings, generally small in size, consist of two days of technical sessions and a one-day field trip, and provide an unparalleled opportunity to network with other editors, publishers, educators and others working in the earth sciences. 
 

Student opportunity: Apply for scholarships from Society of Exploration Geophysicists!

The following message was sent by the Society of Exploration Geophysicists:
During the 2018-2019 school year, the SEG Scholarships program awarded 122 scholarships to dedicated students studying geosciences at various universities around the world.
 
Our scholarships range from $500 to $10,000 USD per academic year, averaging about $3,700 per scholarship. The number of available scholarships depends chiefly upon the number of sponsors and the amount they contribute each year.

The American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG) and the European Federation of Geologists (EFG) have agreed to mutually recognize continuing education units (CEUs). This arrangement allows European Geologist (EurGeol) title holders and AIPG Certified Professional Geologists (CPGs) to seek CEUs from either organization, significantly expanding the course offerings to both groups.

American Geosciences Institute Publishes Community Statement on Harassment

AGI glyph

The American Geosciences Institute (AGI) has published a consensus document which outlines strategies for identifying and addressing issues of workplace harassment in the geosciences. An ad hoc committee consisting of representatives from ten geoscience associations or institutions from across industry and academia was convened by AGI to examine the topic of harassment. This same committee ultimately drafted the consensus document, which was formally approved by the AGI Executive Committee on April 9, 2018.
