Elevate Your GIS Skills with the Spatial Data Science MOOC
What comes to mind when you think about spatial data science?
You may be working with spatial data now as a student in your coursework or in the workplace as an emerging GIS professional. Or, you may not be too sure what spatial data is but are curious to learn more to further your GIS skills and advance your professional development!
One thing is true, spatial data is one of the most powerful resources any organization has. And as you begin your career, you will be set apart if you know how to maximize it!
One way you can learn about spatial data is through Esri’s upcoming massive open online course (MOOC), Spatial Data Science: The New Frontier in Analytics. This MOOC is offered at no-cost and explores the application of spatial data science to uncover hidden patterns and improve predictive modeling.
With deep dives into data engineering, prediction, deep learning, and more, you are sure to find new tips, tricks, and methods to apply to your workflows. This MOOC is ideal for students interested in applying spatial data science in their projects, or GIS professionals looking to add more skills to their geospatial toolkit.
The course opens on August 28, and over 6 weeks you will hear from data science experts and perform realistic, step-by-step exercises. You can also connect with Esri subject matter experts and fellow data enthusiasts from around the globe in the MOOC discussion forum.
You will receive complimentary access to ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Notebooks, ArcGIS Spatial Analyst, and ArcGIS Image Analyst. A certificate is awarded upon successful completion of the course.
Many students and geospatial professionals choose to list their certificate on their resume, cover letter, GIS portfolio, and social media profile. This is an excellent way to stand out to recruiters and rise above the competition.
You have until September 11 at 11:59 PM PT to register!
