2024-04-16 12:00 - 2024-04-25 13:30 | Saskatchewan
Event Format: Virtual webinars
Hosting Organization: Professional Geoscientists Ontario (PGO)
Event Summary: This year’s 2024 Virtual Symposium is taking place April 16, 18, 23 & 25, 2024
Each day is comprised of 3-4 interactive sessions from experts from 12-1.30 pm each day. The sessions will cover issues currently facing the profession, including equity, diversity and inclusion, labour shortage, AI and liability.
Below is a brief overview of each day and topics to be covered in the sessions.
APRIL 16 – Equity, Diversity and Inclusion: Demystifying Registration Practices
This session will focus on raising awareness of the PGO’s process for licensing newcomers to Canada and how to bring equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) into the registration process for these individuals.
APRIL 18 – Engaging, Developing, and Retaining Multigenerational Geoscientists
Geoscience is currently facing a labour market problem, as many are retiring or just entering the field. This session will cover how to integrate new professionals, retain and reengage existing professionals and mentor them to fast-track upskilling.

APRIL 23 – Bridging Realms: Artificial Intelligence in Professional Geoscience
How will AI affect professional geoscience? This session offers an insightful intro into AI before delving deeper into practical applications throughout the field, and how it will affect the future of the profession.

APRIL 25 – Practice, Pitfalls, and Protections – Some Social and Legal Aspects of Geoscience Practice
To protect their own interests, professional geoscientists should be aware that the public will rely on the professional’s opinion and that reliance brings legal obligation, legal liability, and public-interest responsibility with it. This session will cover recent lesser-known legal developments relevant to the profession.
This symposium is relevant to professional geoscientists, geoscientists-in-training, and geoscience students across Ontario and beyond. This learning event will also be of interest to associated communities, including professional regulators, technical societies, government staff, legal practitioners, and the public.

The Power of Vulnerability in Leadership
2024-06-26 12:00 - 13:00 | Saskatchewan
Date: June 26, 2024
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM Central Standard Time
Event Format: Live Webinar – Microsoft Teams platform
Hosting Organization: APEGS – A Professional Webinar Series Presentation
Event Summary: As a leader, how do you create a psychologically safe environment for those under your care? It used to be that showing vulnerability as a leader was a weakness. Not so today. A leader who has the courage to be vulnerable, gives permission to others she/he leads, to be vulnerable as well. And only when openness and authenticity become the norm in the workplace, at home or in the community, can healing occur. With anxiety, depression, and suicide rates on the verge of reaching epidemic levels, people are looking, in large part, to our societal, business and government leaders for an answer. What is our response to this appeal for help? Gord Moker strongly believes that vulnerability in leadership is critical. He has come to this acceptance honestly and will share his story around the struggles he’s faced with anxiety and depression, and how he managed to come through it, and live an abundant life, filled with gratitude and joy, while keeping top-of-mind how fragile life can be, and by not taking anything for granted.
Presenter: Gord Moker, Chair of TEC Canada
There is no cost to attend. This event will be held live on the Microsoft Teams platform.
