<p class="MsoNormal">Colleagues: this is a gentle reminder for those of you who may be considering submitting project ideas to the UW GIS Certificate. Students begin reviewing the projects have been submitting on Monday Oct 31 and the selection process will
conclude on or about Nov 22. See my below email for more information. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m making this second appeal for project ideas because this year is unusual in that we’ve received very few project ideas. At this point I expect that most or all projects that get submitted will be selected by a student team. If you
have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at <a href="mailto:arnoneh@gmail.com">
arnoneh@gmail.com</a> or <a href="mailto:Harvey.arnone@seattle.gov">Harvey.arnone@seattle.gov</a> .

ideas from organizations and agencies around the pacific northwest (though we have done projects from farther afield). If you have a project idea that might be a good fit for a team of 3-4 students, we would appreciate hearing from you! <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:4.8pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222">Utilizing our student teams is a great way to get some work done for your organization and, at the same time, provide
valuable real-world experience for the students. As for quality of results, our program focuses on practical and professional execution of projects in a way that strongly mimics how a project would be executed in the workplace. We have had great success
with the vast majority of our projects and many have gone on to win awards at the annual WAGISA conference and other conferences. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:4.8pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222">If you have a project in mind, please contact me with a brief description of the proposed project by the end of September
(though, if you think of a project later than that, we would still like to hear from you!). Students will begin discussing projects towards the middle of October, and by mid-November all projects will have been selected. Projects kick off in January and conclude
in June of 2023.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
