Our site license includes access to the new Esri E-Learning Training Center. It includes all recorded webinars and non-instructor lead web classes available on the new Training site.
The first document below is a guide that provides instruction on how to enroll and find web classes to learn ArcGIS software. Last updated August 18, 2021.
If you are taking any of these web-training courses, you will be using the ArcGIS software in conjunction with these online courses. You will need to access the course material through the website and not the software. You can access the site using your ArcGIS Online account user name and password.
Esri's ArcGIS Pro includes the following software extensions as part of our site license. The extensions in BOLD are currently installed. Other extensions can be requested. Please contact me for more information.
