About GeoLearn
Geospatial is defined as “of or relating to the relative position of objects on the earth’s surface.” The geospatial industry is involved in data collection, data analysis, reports and digital and graphical representation of information that meets the needs of an exceptionally geospatially informed wide variety of “customers.” There are segments of society where these consumers are practically infinite in number. Many are professionals in surveying, engineering, mapping, construction, architecture, geology and the earth and environmental sciences. Many more cut across all facets of businesses and occupations that are diverse and broad, but sometimes, specific.
We provide dynamic and comprehensive continuing education courses for land surveyors – with a new, fresh approach to professional learning to acquire credits for renewal of licensure and self-improvement. We also recognize the need for content, which we call training, to prepare for licensure and certification and general team training.
With our content we address emerging technology, innovations and business best practices, beyond the legal requirements, delivered so it resonates with learners. In short, GeoLearn offers content that educates, enlightens and enriches geospatial professionals at every level.
Unlike most other online providers, our presenters are industry-renowned professional faculty who deliver with leading-edge multimedia technology. You can decide whether you want the content all at once or in pieces. We hope to make thirst for geospatial knowledge contagious: our courses will give you the content you want, but you’ll be wanting to know even more.
The activities of geospatial professionals cover creation, manipulation and analysis geographical data sets, using data collection tools, spatial software and analytical methods.
It’s little wonder that the U.S. Department of Labor considers geospatial a high-growth market! What’s more, new uses and applications for geospatial are being uncovered every single day. It’s an exciting time for the industry – and exactly the right time to learn where it’s headed.
But geospatial is more than just numbers. The industry influences a wide range of industries – not purely technical. Geospatial professionals include surveyors, geodesists, photogrammetrists, remote sensing specialists and geographic information systems (GIS) professionals. In addition, to the many fields we’ve mentioned, the use of geospatial data or analytics, can range from epidemiology to real-estate tax assessment, from marketing to manufacturing and product distribution, from transportation management to soil conservation.
Our Approach
If you’ve taken geospatial courses in the past, chances are they were traditional classroom or online experiences with face-to-face instruction and/or static material. At GeoLearn, we view educational opportunities as more than just classes, but as a window into entire geospatial industry and its future. We’ve re-invented learning. Here’s how.
We’ve taken online education to new heights. Until now, online professional development for the geospatial industry was utilitarian at best. At GeoLearn, we are completely on-trend with the latest multimedia techniques that will bring subject matter to life in ways that makes learning enjoyable, making it more likely you will absorb and retain the content. Plus, it is delivered to you in a format that fits your individual scheduling and certification needs.
GeoLearn stands apart from the competition thanks to industry-renowned curriculum developers and faculty members. Our instructors are national authorities with distinguished speaking and writing credentials, who – online or face-to-face -- bring their subjects to you in ways that are effective, engaging and exciting.
We’re passionate about our production quality. Our professionally produced videos and presentation tools highlight the information you need to learn and draw you right into the subject matter. You’ll learn better, and learn more when you can immerse yourself in an experience that illustrates and reinforces the content instead of just “spitting it out.”
We take the question marks out of corporate training. Large organizations are often faced with corporate mandates for geospatial training without knowing exactly what their groups need, and when that training is provided, whether it is accessed to advantage. We’ll help guide you to courses and delivery options that will fit the bill on every count, for every level of the profession and for every budget.
We want you to succeed. Our mission for every GeoLearn course is for you to not only feel confident in the material you’ve learned, but to be inspired to go deeper.
