Summary

The new ArcGIS Pro Shorts Series is a series of short, 4 hour (1/2 day) classes designed with a focus on a specific ArcGIS Pro topic. These classes provide a more focused, deep-dive study into a variety of topics.

A layout is a structure in ArcGIS Pro that can be used for creating presentation quality maps for printing, potting, professional publication, or presentation. Layouts can include maps, called map frames when added to a layout, along with legends, north arrows, scale bars, scale text, charts, tables, logos, pictures, and more. Layouts allow for a wide latitude in the design process, and can be designed in many different ways.

In this class you will learn how to create layouts in ArcGIS Pro projects, add a variety of elements including map frames, legends, north arrows, scale bars, text, charts, graphs, tables, and more. You’ll also learn how to use built in layout templates to make the process of designing a layout simple and efficient. Each element that you add to a layout can be configured using element properties. We’ll discuss these element properties and a variety of ways ArcGIS Pro provides for making changes specific to your needs. You’ll also learn how to import layouts you’ve created in ArcMap into ArcGIS Pro as well as how to export your layouts from ArcGIS Pro to a variety of shareable formats.

I strongly and highly recommend it

I really enjoyed the Python/ArcGIS course. For me the right balance between detail and overview. Good work!

I thought the course was very organized. The style of presentation and the lesson format worked well together. It made the information easy to understand. -

Aleeta Zeller, Chattanooga RPA

These courses are great. I am so pressed for time this is the only way I can acquire extra skills these days. Thank you Eric for all your hard work!

Chris Hickin, NYC Fire Dept.

I have attended a number of instructor lead training courses offered by ESRI, which are great in their own right, but the Mastering the ArcGIS Server JavaScript API course gets much more in-depth than they often do. I really liked the recommended reading, they helped expand the terms being covered in lecture to concrete examples that could be related back to my work more directly instead of just having the lecture and exercises alone. I learned a lot andwill recommend this and other GeoSpatial Training courses to the GIS'ers I know. Thanks for putting this course together and offering it.

Jason Warzinik, Boone County, MO

Really good course material. Very relevant subject matter.

Michael Philp, City of Springville, UT

Definitely got me "over the hump" of being able to grasp Python.

Joseph Monti

Very informative and knowledgeable course. It help determine which direction I should take my further GIS and web programming skills.
