ArcGIS Pro: An Introductory Workshop for ArcMap Users (Workshop)

ArcGIS Pro is a project-based desktop GIS for the GIS Professional. With it, you can build projects from your maps, data, analytical models, as well as collaborate with others in your organization and share your work with everyone on the web. In this workshop, you will learn the essential concepts you need to jumpstart your productivity with ArcGIS Pro and tackle essential workflows such as editing, querying, basic analysis, and sharing. Limited seating is available to participate in this workshop with your own laptop (pre-register for Hands-On, Bring your own Device). You will need to download and install ArcGIS Pro on your laptop prior to the workshop. Please refer to the ArcGIS Pro system requirements before installing ArcGIS Pro on your Laptop. If you are an existing ArcGIS user current on maintenance, download ArcGIS pro from your MyEsri Portal. If you are a new ArcGIS user, you can download a free trial version by signing up here. Follow the instruction in this link to complete the install. Additional seating will be available for those who wish to participate as an audience member (not hands-on)!
