Hi All,
Just to let you know I'm running another MaxEnt data prep course. It's face-to-face and one day long. It will be taking place in London on November 23rd. The structure of the course is as follows:
Morning session - an introduction to ArcGIS and familiarisation of the interface
Afternoon session 1 - MaxEnt, a brief overview of how MaxEnt works
Afternoon session 2 - Using ArcGIS geoprocessing tools to prepare data and using bespoke tools to batch data
You can sign up to the course here:

Although tools exist to do this (SDMtoolbox) you will gain a greater understanding of GIS principles, ArcGIS and MaxEnt. The course is designed for beginners.
