Here's a sampling.\r\n\r\n<strong>The ArcGIS Platform:<\/strong>\u00a0You will learn how to use ArcGIS as a platform across your organization, where you can compile and manage geographic data, work with maps and apps, perform spatial analysis, and conduct GIS projects. You will see how to use your network or the cloud to create and share useful maps and apps with end users. You will also find the latest web and mobile apps included in ArcGIS, ready-to-use geographic content, and GIS services designed to get you started quickly."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":180982,"image_position":"right","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<strong>Web and Mobile Apps:<\/strong>\u00a0You will learn about mobile and web apps and the developer-focused software developer kits (SDKs) available to build them. These apps make it faster and easier for field and office staff to collaborate and get real-time information.\r\n\r\n<strong>Big Data:<\/strong>\u00a0Data, data, everywhere can become unruly. But when big data is corralled and put to good use, it can drive better decisions for disaster relief, finance, government, natural resources, retail, utilities, and business. At Esri UC, you will learn GIS techniques to tame big data and put it to work.\r\n\r\n<strong>Open Data:<\/strong>\u00a0Through a new open data initiative, Esri makes it easy for you to discover, explore, access, and share open data. You will learn how to make your data available to the public or find and improve data for your applications."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":180972,"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<strong>Real-Time GIS:<\/strong>\u00a0New technologies are combining to enable real-time collection and sharing of data.

These solutions let you inject mapping and location into existing IT, such as Microsoft Office, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM Cognos, SAP, Salesforce.com, or MicroStrategy. Or you can design a custom solution.\r\n\r\n<strong>ArcGIS for Developers:<\/strong>\u00a0If you are a developer, you will get the opportunity to learn about simple, configurable APIs and SDKs, as well as ready-to-use content and geospatial web services. You also will get to meet and mingle with Esri's growing developer community.\r\n\r\n<strong>Spatial Analysis:<\/strong>\u00a0With spatial analysis services, you can analyze the data hosted in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arcgis.com\/features\/\">ArcGIS Online<\/a>\u00a0to answer questions such as, Where is the best location for a new school or retail store? or How many crimes have occurred within my city?
