Launched in 2020, the AAG’s Early Career Webinar Series focuses on issues for geographers navigating their early careers, as well as current job seekers and soon-to-be graduates at all levels seeking knowledge about careers and professional development in geography.
This series features practicing geographers across industry and academia sharing their unique knowledge and perspectives on a wide range of topics related to careers and professional development.
Along with our sister series on Department Leadership, the Early Career series is organized by the AAG in partnership with past president Ken Foote of the University of Connecticut and Shannon O’Lear of the University of Kansas.
