What do Participants Say:

"On the verge of giving up my hope to learn python for QGIS, the Spatial Thoughts course on Customizing QGIS with Python ignited my long lost interest. The lecture delivered along with a very interactive session makes one understand the basic concept customization using python for QGIS." - Jigme Tenzin, World Food Program, Bhutan


"I got a good idea on the customization of QGIS and also the scripting aspects with Python, even though I had very minimal knowledge in Python, by the end of the workshop, i got a lot of confidence on scripting. Ujaval’s explanation is simple and precise. The icing of the whole workshop is the certification which is from QGIS. I look forward to attending more workshops from Spatial Thoughts!" -Gurudatta K, Aaron GSD, India


"This course covered a lot of ground, but by using judicious examples it was easy to follow. The class was small enough that the instructor was able to provide individual help when students had trouble, and the instructor made a real effort to keep the class together as it advanced through the material. I had a computer glitch, and the instructor took the trouble to bring me up to where the class was during a break." -Peter Kowalczyk, Geophysicist, Canada
