eGIS Training Schedule 2023 & Other Training/Learning Resources
eGIS Training & Events Calendar – 2023
eGIS Training/Learning Opportunities
Brown Bag Session – eGIS will host an informal Brown Bag Session during lunchtime to assist GIS practitioners with technical or cartographic skills. This session is open to all.
Vendors Workshops – eGIS retains services from various software vendors. To ensure eGIS Member departments utilize and understand the use of the vendor software services, eGIS will host targeted Vendor workshops, with technical & hands-on lessons on topics specific to that vendor. Example vendor showcases include Esri, Geocortex, Eagleview, or 1Spatial. Example topics for vendor showcases would be “Esri ArcGIS Hub Sites: Designing for Accessibility” to ensure compliance with US Access Board (Section 508) & Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
eGIS Training – eGIS-developed, custom content targeted at departments with new-to-the-County GIS Staff. EGIS, in the last half of the year, will be deploying training material specific to our County’s GIS infrastructure, including eGIS repository connections and eGIS Server Infrastructure.
Esri Training – eGIS, as part of the enterprise investment into Esri Technology, is encouraging and facilitating access to Esri’s eLearning. In the Esri eLearning environment, managers or authorized staff can assign courses or Learning Plans to staff for professional or project-based training on geospatial technology.
If you have any questions, please reach out to the eGIS team via email.
