AGS Career Development – Professional Geologist Registration

The AGS sponsors a monthly two-hour workshop to help prepare candidates for the Professional

Geologist Licensure Examination. The workshops are held in the Human Resources classroom at the Fernbank Science Center, 156 Heaton Park Dr. from 10:00 am until 12:00 pm the last Saturday of every month. Everyone is welcome to the workshops; AGS membership, while preferred, is not a prerequisite. We do not "teach the test;" our aim is to review fundamental concepts of the earth sciences and acquaint candidates with industry specific information not easily obtainable from the literature. Please inform anyone who might be interested in becoming a professional geologist of our workshop. Please consider joining us even if you are not a P.G. candidate. The workshops are interesting and informative.

If you are interested in attending and would like more information, I can be contacted at kws876@yahoo.com. The March 29th workshop will feature Dr. Tim Long leading a discussion on seismic techniques and investigations. The next examination will be held

October 3, 2008.
