This one day introductory course is designed to instruct students in how to perform those tasks which will most commonly be required when first using ArcGIS for Desktop to view, edit and map spatial data.
It is ideal for those who have purchased ArcGIS for Home Use, and are looking to get a quick return on that investment, at an affordable price.
However, it will just as rapidly upskill (or re-skill) anyone using ArcGIS for Desktop for the first time (or for the first time in a long time!) for government or private work.
The course is taught by an ArcGIS Specialist with 25+ years of continuous experience in training, consulting and supporting Esri products.
After completing this course, you will have the skills and confidence to:
- Navigate maps using a variety of tools

“Excellent course for a beginner. Graeme eased my fear of using ArcGIS by demystifying it and guiding us through it in a structured way. I have a lot more confidence in working with ArcGIS now and realise I would have had little chance and wasted a lot of time continuing to struggle with this complex software on my own.” – Samantha Abbato – Evaluation consultant
