Students should have strong computer skills and introductory skills in ArcGIS. Participants will be provided with a student version of ArcGIS for use in class exercises.

The 3 credits is college credit and not just continuing education credit therefore people will need to register with Kirkwood CC to enroll. Call Kirkwood at 1-800-363-2220 for registration assistance.
