Arc Pro

GIO Modernizing GIS Desktop and Enterprise Applications

As seasons change so does the technology in which we do our jobs. Ever changing goals, projects, and deadlines keep us moving forward with the tools we choose to complete our jobs. The core tool within the ArcGIS for Desktop, ArcMap has been a reliable and a go to tool for many. However ESRI has announced that ArcMap will be retired and all desktop development will be focused on ArcGIS Pro and other future technologies. This change presents challenges to organizations in regards to migrating existing workflows, custom tools, and user training. As part of the GIO GIS training options we have several beginner ArcGIS Pro options available for users looking to begin their transition to ArcGIS Pro. Below are links to ESRI's blog post updating users on ArcMap support as well as training options to get you started.
