DESCRIPTION:Title: GIS Professional Certificate\n\nDescription: GIS technology has broad applications in business, natural and social sciences, environmental studies, engineering, and management. The use of geospatial technologies continues to rapidly grow and values a certified workforce.You'll leave the GIS Professional Certificate program with knowledge of the newest GIS software and best practices for utilizing it in your field. Classes will focus on creating new features, editing, georeferencing, and basic knowledge of web mapping, advanced GIS concepts along with hands-on experience in specialty topics. Specialty topics will provide a deep dive into a particular subject matter such as web mapping, field collection, and cartography. Unlike other GIS certificate programs, we'll focus on how desktop GIS software transitions to web-facing applications and the role web GIS plays in today's organizations. Additionally, students who complete the certificate will be eligible to sit for the ArcGIS Desktop Entry certification through Esri, the leading GIS software provider.<div><br></div><div><h3 class="center-hm" style="box-sizing: inherit; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: &quot;wdth&quot; 100; margin: 0px 0px 1rem; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; line-height: 1.2;"><b><font size="3">Hardware Requirements&nbsp;</font></b></h3><p style="box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 1rem; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;"><font face="Times New Roman">Windows operating system on laptop or desktop&nbsp;<span style="box-sizing: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><b>required&nbsp;</b></span>to participate in class.
