Hi Paul Fausey,

Did you have a look at the online help? ArcGIS Pro | 2D and 3D GIS Mapping Software 

There you will also find information on editing:

Editing in ArcGIS Pro—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation 

And there is Esri Academy where you can search for the training you need.

Hope this helps to get you started.

BR,

Hi Paul,

I recommend this lesson: Get started with ArcGIS Pro | Learn ArcGIS  

It sounds like you want to create an empty layer that you will manually add data to. If that's the case, I recommend using map notes. It's the easiest way to make a new layer: Map notes—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation 

You may also find these short videos helpful:

Thank you,

Heather
