Industry teachers + Modern curriculum =
Better Student Outcome
We brainstorm, we build online degree in GIS, and we’re the backbone of huge projects.
"I always had the task of showing people how to create and maintain an enterprise workflow. But instead of showing 1 or 2 people, I can use this platform to share my know-how with anyone. They offered a ton of support to build my class and I have found it energizing to talk with aspiring students."
