Hi all
It’s just two weeks to go to the FOSS4G Africa 2017 and QGIS South Africa User Group conference on 28-30 June and Code Sprint on 1 July.
* You won’t get GIS training this cheap again!
* 3 CPD Points * for the conference (Category 1a)
* 1 CPD Point * for the Code Sprint (Category 1b)
A special note to QGIS enthusiasts: This national conference is in place of the regional Gauteng and Cape meetings. It’s not too late to register or to offer to share a presentation or workshop around the work you do with QGIS.
Check out the PROGRAMME: https://foss4g-africa.org/en/programme/ <https://foss4g-africa.org/en/programme/>
REGISTER NOW: https://foss4g-africa.org/en/register/ <https://foss4g-africa.org/en/register/>
GISSA members: If you are a paid-up GISSA member, the 28th is free as GISSA Gauteng is merging their General Meeting with the conference. And you get a great deal on the Thursday and Friday.
We can still work you into the programme if you’d like to share the FOSS GIS work you’re doing in a workshop or presentation : https://foss4g-africa.org/en/proposals/submit/ <https://foss4g-africa.org/en/proposals/submit/>
