For the past several months IGIS has been working on a Geospatial Staff Development Plan (Plan) for UC-ANR in collaboration with Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) - the industry leader in GIS technology. The purpose of the Plan is to help staff and academics navigate through the many options for technical training in GIS that are available through IGIS and ESRI.
The Plan documents geospatial-specific goals, which are aligned to UC-ANR's strategic goals. The Plan will be useful in identifying specific trainings tailored to support staff, academics, and the UC-ANR investment in enterprise GIS. Typically, organizations apply GIS in five pattern areas: data and asset management, planning and analysis, field mobility, operational awareness and citizen engagement. Recommended trainings are organized by job title and by pattern areas to facilitate selection of the most appropriate trainings for your skill level.
