Welcome to #30DaysOfQGIS! We have launched our Advanced QGIS course on YouTube and have designed this challenge to help you master QGIS! Spend 30 minutes each day for the next 30 days to level-up your QGIS skills. This course is the result of my 15+ years of experience using QGIS for large-scale spatial analysis and automating workflows. I am really excited to share this content with you – completely free.

The material is full of tips, tricks and challenges that will make your learning journey fun and rewarding! All you have to do is show up everyday and spend half an hour watching the videos and practicing the exercise. Ready for #30DaysOfQGIS? Read on to know the details.

Watch the videos and work through the material at your own pace. Share your progress on social media with the hashtag #30DaysOfQGIS to get support from your network. We hope that at the end of the month – you would have mastered new skills that will make you a QGIS power user. These videos are part of our Advanced QGIS course and have been optimized for bite-sized learning.

Note: This challenge is free for anyone to participate and improve their skills with help of our open learning materials. We are not able to provide certificates or review your work.
