Several federal agencies (USFS, BLM and NRCS) have successfully coordinated On-the-Spot Hiring programs at the Society for Range Management annual meetings in past years. The 2010 program scheduled for the meeting in Denver, Colorado, will surpass the previous years. For more information on positions available, applications, and the process go to the 2010 On-the-Spot Hiring.

The mission of the 2010 RANGELAND JOB FAIR is to match prospective employers from the Federal Agencies, State and Provincial Governments, Private Industry, Academia, and Conservation Organizations with the high caliber of educated and enthusiastic prospects from SRM. The job fair will involve a full day on Sunday February 7, 2010. We encourage all interested meeting attendees to drift through and browse the JOB FAIR between other scheduled activities, meetings and workshops. For more information, go to the 2010 Job Fair

SRM is concerned about the future management of rangelands. We are especially concerned about the future of the workforce dedicated to managing these lands. Current information reveals that at least 25-33% of this workforce will likely retire in the next 10 years. Who will fill their shoes?

In order to start addressing these concerns, SRM is expanding its job hiring and career development opportunities at the 2010 63rd SRM Annual Meeting and Trade Show in Denver, Colorado on February 7-11, 2010.

Student Conclave

The International Student Conclave is the student organization of the Society for Range Management. The Conclave promotes student participation in the SRM. It serves to unite the student members of the SRM, creates a greater public awareness of the profession of range management while promoting it as a science, strengthens the SRM by assisting in the attainment of society goals, and enhances professional development of the conclave membership.
