Python in ArcGIS

How can a few lines of code completely transform your GIS work? In this one-on-one course, you’ll discover how to use Python with ArcGIS to build smart scripts that speed up analysis and automate your workflows. With personal guidance, interactive online modules, and hands-on assignments, you’ll learn exactly what you need to start applying your skills right away.

Python in ArcGIS

Python is a smart choice for anyone who wants to work more efficiently with geospatial data. Within ArcGIS, it offers powerful tools for automation, spatial analysis, and workflow optimization. Whether you’re editing maps, analyzing datasets, or managing complex processes, Python helps you get more out of every step in your GIS work.

ArcGIS has long been a cornerstone in the world of geo-information. By adding Python to your toolkit, you can speed up repetitive tasks, minimize errors, and automate entire workflows. With just a few lines of code, you’ll be able to generate maps, process large datasets, or run advanced spatial analyses with ease.

If you’re already working in GIS and ready to take the next step, Python is the perfect tool to elevate your skills. You’ll not only work smarter, but also prepare for a future where digital geosolutions play a central role in decision-making.

What will you learn in this blended learning course?

In this course, you’ll learn step by step how to use Python in the ArcGIS environment. You’ll begin with the basics: understanding Python syntax, writing simple scripts, and working with variables, loops, and functions. Then, you’ll move on to ArcGIS-specific skills—using ArcPy to automate and streamline your GIS workflows.

You’ll explore how to load, edit, and analyze geospatial data using Python. Through practical assignments, you’ll apply what you’ve learned by running spatial analyses, generating maps, and automating data updates. These are real-world skills you can immediately use on the job.

Additionally, you’ll learn how Python integrates with tools like ModelBuilder—and how combining them can make your GIS processes even more powerful.

Why choose this Python in ArcGIS course?

Blended learning gives you the best of both worlds—live interaction and flexible, self-paced study—so you can build practical, job-ready skills with Python and ArcGIS. In this course, you’ll learn to automate workflows, analyze spatial data, and streamline repetitive tasks with confidence.

We kick things off with a live session where you’ll dive right into scripting with ArcPy. With support from experienced GIS professionals, you’ll work with real-world data, build custom tools, and integrate Python into your everyday GIS workflows.

Next, in the self-paced modules, you’ll continue building your skills at your own speed. You’ll explore Python fundamentals, spatial data handling, and geoprocessing automation. Along the way, you’ll use tools like ArcPy, GeoPandas, and Shapely to import data, run analyses, and write reusable scripts.

Then, in a second live session, you’ll apply everything to a realistic project. You’ll troubleshoot challenges, refine your code, and receive personal feedback to strengthen your results.

One of the course highlights is its hands-on, real-world focus. You’ll create functional outputs—like automation scripts and spatial tools—that can be used immediately in your GIS projects.

By combining expert instruction with practical assignments, this course takes you beyond theory. By the end, you’ll feel confident using Python in ArcGIS and ready to make smarter, faster decisions with your spatial data.
