For you or especially for a colleague you have been trying to get into GIS, announcing a 1 day online GIS short course via an upcoming opportunity that I am offering:
Immersive, hands-on, lively, relevant, web-based, spatial analysis, communication tools-visualizations (dashboards, instant apps, story maps, infographics), getting data into your GIS, field data collection tools, and more, with short quizzes that will encourage you that you are making progress (and a bit of geo-geekiness to keep things fun).
