Instructor-Led Training: Preparing for ArcGIS Pro Migration

With ArcMap set to retire in 2026, GIS professionals must transition smoothly to ArcGIS Pro. The following instructor-led courses help teams make the switch effectively:

• Migrating from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro – A two-day course designed for experienced ArcMap users, covering essential ArcGIS Pro concepts, terminology, and hands-on tasks such as mapping, editing, analyzing, and sharing geospatial data.

• ArcGIS Pro: Essential Workflows – A three-day course tailored for new GIS users, teaching fundamental workflows for managing, analyzing, and sharing spatial data within ArcGIS Pro.
