Manifold GIS Training
In collaboration with UCL, I developed the first commercial Manifold GIS residential training course. We have so far run three sessions of the course, training over 60 attendants on how to use the Manifold GIS. Please find below a more detailed description of the course content.
The course is aimed at novice or potential Manifold Users enabling them to use the power of Manifold GIS to display, manipulate and analyse geographic information confidently and create high-quality outputs. The course is structured in modules containing comprehensive overviews of fundamental topics relating to geographical information, databases and cartography along with hands-on tutorials teaching users the most important functionalities of Manifold GIS.
Participants receive a comprehensive training manual containing all of the course content such as presentation slides, tutorial worksheets, Manifold project files and datasets used. This training manual will act as a valuable reference guide after the course is completed.
The training course provides:
- A workstation preloaded with all software and data for the tutorials
- State-of-the-art air-conditioned computer room
- Comprehensive course documentation folder
- Course Certificate from UCL on completion
- Lunch and refreshments provided
