Excellent introduction to ArcGIS. Also a good option if it's been a while since you've worked with GIS and need a refresher. The course is a great mix of videos, quizzes, exercises, and a final assignment to test your knowledge.

Un curso excelente. El inglés no es mi idioma nativo y me pareció que las explicaciones fueron muy concretas y fáciles de entender. La pasión que le pone Nick a sus clases es lo mejor, seguiré con los demás cursos del programa.

This was a very informative and streamlined intro to GIS.
I could see the pace being too much for someone totally unfamiliar with GIS, but it's also going to touch on all the basics you should expect from some longer courses.

Good background course and introduction to using ARCMap. Would have been nice to have materials to follow along with the lectures, but the assignments provided a second follow along at doing what was done in the lectures.
