2025 UCGIS Symposium Evaluation

General Information

Dear Colleague,

This brief survey is designed to collect feedback for our Symposia planning. Whether or not you attended any of this year’s sessions, we are eager to learn more about your experience and expectations with past or future symposia, online or in person, so that we may better tailor our future meetings to meet your needs and interests.

This survey should take 5-10 minutes to complete. The aggregated responses will be viewed only by the UCGIS Board for its internal planning purposes. If you have questions about the survey, please contact the UCGIS Executive Director, Amy Rock (arock@ucgis.org)
