    <div>Hi Guys,<br>
      <br>
      I intend to use Quantum GIS tutorials/data that has been tried and
      tested in other training platforms. I have decided to use QGIS for
      my 2nd/3rd university students to introduce it as another tool
      besides ARCGIS/ Ilwis etc. Any advice on recent training manuals,
      data etc. will be appreciated. The unit will be focussing on using
      GIS for planning and decision making. <br>
      <br>
      Kind regards,<br>
      <br>
