URISA is pleased to invite applications for its Vanguard Cabinet. 

The Vanguard Cabinet (VC) is an advisory board made up of passionate, young (35 years of age or younger) geospatial professionals who strive to engage young practitioners, increase their numbers in the organization, and better understand the concerns facing these future leaders of the geospatial community. The VC's mission is to collaborate with URISA’s Board of Directors and URISA committees in creating and promoting programs and policies of benefit to young professionals and to enhance overall innovation, collaboration, networking, and professional development opportunities.

From managing a mentoring program and supporting student competitions to serving as committee leaders and conference chairs, and even being elected to the URISA Board of Directors, these professionals are the "NextGen" GIS Leaders, providing valuable direction and enthusiasm to the community.

Cabinet members are selected through an application process, with a review by the URISA Leadership Development Committee. The application process closes on July 20, 2020. For details and an online submission form, visit https://www.urisa.org/vanguardcabinet
