<p>This 8 hour workshop is designed to introduce you to QGIS 3.x, an Open Source GIS software for viewing, editing, and managing spatial data in a wide variety of commonly used vector and raster formats. It is lightweight, flexible, and can be installed on
 Windows, MacOSX, and Linux. By the end of the class students should be able to install QGIS, display data, begin editing, and create a map.

The Course Description is here! </a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>This class is certified through the QGIS community so a portion of sales goes back to software development. All participants get a certificate which can be used for professional credit.
