The Introduction to ArcGIS II course is a 3 day class that continues to
build on the skills learned during the Introduction to ArcGIS I and
teaches students about some of the more advanced functions found within

attending classes will receive lecture and exercise manuals, a CD-ROM
containing all data used in the class exercises, and a certificate of
completion.
