What do participants say:

I have been using Qgis for some years, and as a self-thought, I started feeling stuck in my learning path. This Advanced QGIS course was just great; Ujaval is an excellent teacher with outstanding knowledge! I really appreciated the course’s quality and contents, and I highly recommend it to all the Qgis users who want to level up their skills! -Luigi Carboni, Research Fellow. Politecnico di Milano, Italy

Ujaval’s style of training is extremely effective and enjoyable. Even though he has made so much of the content freely available through his blogs, the instructor-led classes are completely worth the time and cost. His experience, creativity and practical examples while answering all questions is incredibly helpful. -Ruel Dsouza, Consultant, India

A great overview of the advanced capabilities of Qgis. The zoom / instructor-led activities is a far more effective approach than self-paced tutorials as you get immediate feedback on problems encountered. I also found it very useful to hear other thoughts and questions from other members of the course located all over the globe. -Lewis Crawford, Equal Experts, UK
