Good afternoon.
I am currently taking a GIS intro course and I am very interested in the topic and would like to grow.
I might conceder doing a masters in the GIS field. Nonetheless, an internship would come in handy, and if you have any reference to available internships I will greatly appreciate it.
Thank you,
-Luis R.
Ambiental is always looking forward for talented individuals in this field.
I am working as a GIS data developer and I want to develop myself, but my manager is taking all the work, and put me only on digitizing maps, so how can I develop my self without the refer to my manager?
