UNB Inventory of Industry Collaboration Needs for the 20202021 Academic Year In an effort to enable students participating remotely across Canada to access practical field experience normally provided at UNB, the Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering Department at University of New Brunswick is seeking expressions of interest from members of the surveying industry to facilitate some practical activities in the upcoming year. This would involve willingness to involve one to four ...undergraduate students in some or all of the activities outlined in the attached document. The involvement need only be for fieldwork. Computation, analysis, and reporting can be done remotely using UNB resources. While we are currently working on plans for longer term remote delivery of our courses, this solicitation only applies to meeting immediate needs for the 20202021 academic year. The intention is to do this in a way that minimally interferes with your day to day operations, and to hopefully also build connections and relationships between students and prospective employers. We hope industrial partners will find value in these activities supporting the training of the next generation of surveyors. For further details of this initiative, and how to become an industrial partner please contact Greg Smith ([email protected]), who is acting as our Industry Liaison. Robert Kingdon ([email protected]), our Director of Undergraduate Studies. https://files.constantcontact.com//9d8f8a6f-d686-40ca-8826 University of New Brunswick

NSC 2020 Cancellation The virus continues to spread globally and the situation has been changing on a daily basis. We have continued to monitor the pandemic and social distancing suggestions from the Canadian Government and World Health Organization along with guidelines for large gatherings. At this time we have decided necessary to cancel the National Surveyors Conference May 19th - 22nd in Mont Tremblant, Quebec.... The ACLS business meeting scheduled for May 22nd, 2020 will now be held online via GoToTraining, registration and meeting information will be sent out shortly. A full refund for registration fees will be issued to those who have already registered for the NSC 2020. If you have booked your flights and/or hotel room please contact the hotel, carrier or booking agent directly for further direction.

For obvious reasons, the ACLS office will be closed starting March 17th, 2020 for an undetermined time. Staff members will be working from home. We will respond to e-mails and phone calls as usual but e-mail is the best way to reach us. Be safe!... Pour des raisons évidentes, le bureau de l'AATC sera fermé à partir 17 mars 2020 pour une durée indéterminée. Les membres du personnel travailleront à domicile. Nous répondrons aux courriels et aux appels téléphoniques comme d'habitude, mais l'usage de courriels est le meilleur moyen de nous rejoindre. Faites attention !

Happy holiday's from the ACLS!
