GIS247 is a dedicated GIS training service for GIS users.

We provide a range of training courses for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS and MapInfo Professional. Our training is for everyone: whatever your GIS experience or how often you need to use it.

GIS Video Presentations & Exercises

Our GIS training courses are structured into sections with instructor-led InVision presentations, together with hands-on exercises. InVision presentations show the GIS software in action so you know exactly how to find and use each function. Exercises provide step-by step instructions on how to perform specific tasks and use GIS tools. All presentations and hands-on exercises can be repeated as often as needed to help consolidate learning. This is a key advantage of eLearning.

GIS Essentials for GIS Foundational Knowledge

We provide a range of educational presentations that outline key GIS concepts, essential to all GIS users. Access is included in any GIS247 licence. So in addition to technical training, GIS247 helps users develop a deeper understanding of wider GIS issues.

Solving GIS Problems and User Support

Even experienced GIS users forget the details of how to use a specific function from time to time. That’s why GIS247 provides a powerful Search function to provide instant support. Running a Search searches the Technical Library and returns a series of instructional videos that show exactly how to use the function/s meeting the ‘search’ criteria. This ability enables users to self support and resolve any queries quickly and easily; allowing them to progress with their work.

So GIS247 is great for always available problem solving too!

Quality and CPD Points

Our eLearning approach is highly effective! Don’t just take our word for it. Our training is accredited by a number of different professional bodies, including the GIS Certification Institute, The Royal Geographical Society and the Association of Geographic Information.

GIS Assessment Programme

To help ensure that you learn effectively, we also offer an assessment programme. This enables you to earn course certificates as proof of your new GIS skills. As we really want to help you learn, we do this for free as part of your training licence.

Closed Captions

All our GIS presentations have sound plus closed captions. Closed Captions are useful to reinforce the information being presented and to become familiar with technical terms. They’re also useful when English is a second language and for those with impaired hearing.

GIS Data

For each training coursen you are provided with a set of downloadable GIS data to use in the hands-on exercises. Exercises present simulated real-World scenarios so you learn GIS software in a problem-solving environment. This approach is a proven aid to learning.

GIS Learning Management System

Our LMS tracks every course video & exercise used by each person in all courses and technical modules for each GIS software. The LMS enables your organisation to control access to specific material and software versions and to check on user progress. They can also review the certificates awarded to each learner.
