I greatly appreciate you taking the time ...Logan, <br /><br />I greatly appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions about the student moderator experience. <br /><br />Your experience highlights the transferable skill of moderating a meeting and the networking opportunities that I'm excited to continue pursuing in order to round out my academic knowledge with the soft skills necessary to be an effective team member in the environmental sector.<br /><br />I'm also glad to hear that I may be able to still see some specific sessions of interest to me while attending as a moderator.<br /><br />All the Best.<br />David Ryrienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158879844458916061.post-25890788775084713232012-08-30T11:49:20.588-04:002012-08-30T11:49:20.588-04:00David,

Similar to the emotions and knowledge which Kim was immersed in over the event, Moderators are also able to share in many of the same sessions and social opportunities. If you are interested in specific sessions you will be able to organize your moderating duties in order to attend. Moderators have a great deal of freedom throughout the program with access to experiences unique to that position. <br /><br />Additionally, you will be sure to gain valuable contacts and experience in the moderation of sessions which will likely serve you in any future career. <br /><br />I learned a great deal as a moderator and was able to share the wonderful experience with other individuals within the small Ontario environmental community. I would definitely recommend you apply for a moderating position and use the opportunity to its full potential.<br /><br />Good luck and enjoy.

I look forward to taking away the same dearth of knowledge, networking contacts and passion for the environmental sector as you did last year.<br /><br />I've finished my draft Grant Application, complete with reference letter. I'm hoping the 2012 Full Program will be posted shortly so I can further develop my answers before the application deadline. <br /><br />I will also be applying to be a student moderator. Did you get the chance to talk with any of last year's moderators? Was their experience just as positive? <br /><br />I hope to ELC you there in November!David Ryrienoreply@blogger.com
