Today I came across this little page via a linkedin group (Link):
This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is for people who know something about data analysis and want to learn about the special capabilities of spatial data analysis.
Unfortunately not much is know regarding this course:
Hands-on exercises, short video lectures, quizzes, case studies and discussion
6 weeks, 2-3 hours of study per week
Certificate of completion and prizes
But one thing is known:
You’ll get free access to the full analytical capabilities of ArcGIS Online, Esri’s cloud-based GIS platform.
See more and register here.
Could someone comment whether there is a schedule with some more background?!
I just signed up and got the following response by email.
