Peter Schols
After earning my degree in Forest and Nature Management from Hogeschool Larenstein, I joined Geo-ICT Training Center as a GIS specialist and Geo-ICT instructor. I was fortunate to dive in immediately, leading the training of around 160 forest rangers from Natuurmonumenten in QGIS.
After my initial period at Geo-ICT Training Center, I broadened my focus within the field of spatial information. In addition to teaching, I also took on a part-time role with the Province of Overijssel.
Staying current with new developments and continuously learning is very important to me. That’s why I chose to pursue a master’s degree in Geographic Information Sciences (UNIGIS) at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. At Geo-ICT, I now teach advanced courses in ArcGIS and QGIS, as well as QGIS / Python and ArcGIS / Python courses.
