Well-trained people knowledgeable in spatial analysis and skilled in using GIS software are essential to the GIS process. There are three factors to becoming a GIS professional: education, career path, and networking. The GIS Education Center will get you started with your education, network you through organizations such as Bay Area Automated Mapping Association (BAAMA), and introduce you to people who work as GIS professionals.
