*Descriptions*

Descriptions for all of the workshops can also be found at
gispd.com/training. Please pay particular attention to any prerequisite
requirements in the descriptions and below.



*Approach*

The nature of these workshops is as much coaching as it is teaching, in
that, rather than working through fixed exercises, attendees seem to prefer
to follow along as I give explanations and demos and then spend time
practicing what they've learned, helping each other out in the process.
This allows for an engaging and flexible approach, with discussion and
experimentation greatly enhancing the collective experience.



*Things to Note*

For all workshops, please read the associated details carefully and note
the following:

   - Prerequisite requirements

As explained in the descriptions:

   - The Introduction to ArcGIS Arcade workshop is a prerequisite
      requirement for the Intermediate ArcGIS Arcade workshop;
      - My Introduction to Python Programming workshop is a prerequisite
      requirement for the Introduction to ArcGIS Data Management Using Python
      workshop;
      - Please get in touch if you would like to discuss a waiver of any
      prerequisite requirements or would like me to provide a prerequisite
      workshop offering.
   - Setup
      - I'll send you setup instructions well before a workshop commences.
      - You're welcome to register at any time before a workshop starts. If
      you have trouble registering at the last minute, please let me know and
      we'll work it out. Please bear in mind that it’s important that you’ve
      completed all setup requirements BEFORE a workshop begins.



*Acknowledgements*

I'm most grateful to the Montana Association of Geographic Information
Professionals (MAGIP) <https://www.magip.org/> and Oregon URISA (ORURISA)
