Hannah Chessell, P.Geo.
Chair, Symposium Planning Committee

On behalf of the Committee, I’m excited to invite you to join us for the PGO Virtual Symposium 2025!

Over four days—April 15, 17, 22, and 24, from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time—we’ll explore four key topics:

  • The application of AI in geoscience practice
  • Inclusion and safety in fieldwork
  • Career development and roadmaps
  • Navigating ethics, accountability, and trauma-informed regulation

The PGO Virtual Symposium 2025 is a platform for diverse perspectives, bringing together geoscientists and professionals from various fields. While tailored to professional geoscientists and geoscientists-in-training, the content will provide valuable insights for regulators, government staff, legal practitioners, academia, students, related professionals, and members of the public interested in the intersection of science, ethics, and society, and how these concepts are applied in the modern world.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain fresh insights and enhance your knowledge—all from the comfort of your home!

Early registration deadline: March 31, 2025. Secure your spot at a discounted rate!
