The EXP-P Professional Profiles

The professional profile is the applicants chance to fully explain the GIS-related duties at the positions claimed on the EXP-W worksheets. The general and tiered description sections on each worksheet determine how points are awarded for that position. It is imperative that a detailed professional profile accompanies the application. The resume should fully explain the full range of duties one had at each position claimed on an EXP-W worksheet. The resume descriptions may either be bulleted lists or paragraphs. Please concentrate on duties as well as projects that incorporated those duties. A formal job description can be included as well.

If filling out the application using the form fields, the values from the EXP-W Experience Worksheets will automatically populate to the corresponding professional profile. If filling out the application in ink, the values will need to be entered manually.

On each professional profile the applicant must complete the Description of GIS-Related Duties section for each position the applicant is claiming points for. The applicant must also complete the corresponding Tier I, II, III, and Supervisory Bonus point sections where applicable. If an applicant is claiming points in Tier I, the description of those points must be provided on the corresponding professional profile. If an applicant is not claiming points within a specific tier, there is no need to fill out the corresponding professional profile box for that tier. This description should be concise and should not expand outside of the provided box. This description should encapsulate the breadth of the duties performed in that position so that the Review Committee may determine if points are being claimed in the correct category. For example, if an applicant is claiming 100% of their GIS-related duties in tier II, the description of those duties on the professional profile in tier II should be exhaustive. In the previous example, tiers I, III, and the Supervisory Bonus should be left blank.

The EXP-P forms are kept purposefully small to avoid editorializing. If more space is needed, please attach a separate sheet that lists further GIS-related duties. The form may also be recreated as long as the style is identical to the one used in the official application.
