GPS Training Classes makes you a GPS expert easily ...

We offer Trimble Certified GPS training for GeoXH, GeoXT, GeoXM, ProXH, ProXRT, and TerraSync or ESRI Arcpad Web remote or on-site . Training includes 3-day Certified course, 1 to 2-day basic courses, and telephone /Web training. 

GPS classes are conducted at a customer's site.  A minimum of six students are required for a three-day Trimble Certified class.  Other options are 2-day or 1-day classes.  In the later, less than six students are possible. Each student receives a comprehensive manual with over 100 pages featuring PowerPoint slides, each student receives a Trimble Certificate of Completion.  Trimble requires a computer for every two students supplied by the customer, and a GPS receiver for every two students, in most cases we can  supply required GPS units.  The fee range is between $1,500 and $4,500. 

3-Day Course Overview
This is the most extensive training course offered.  The subject can be Trimble ProXH, Recon with TerraSync, GeoXH, GeoXT or GeoXM with TerraSync. New course variation can include ProXRT using a Zephyr antenna.  ArcPad can be substituted for TerraSync in any course version. Examples of subject matter:

bulletGPS Fundamentals
bulletAccuracy
bulletMission Planning
bulletData Dictionary
bulletGPS and Pathfinder Configuration
bulletData Collection
bulletEditing
bulletDifferential Correction
bulletExporting to GIS

The 3-Day course includes at least four hands-on field sessions.  The final field session is a student independent data collection and data processing project modeled on the kind of GPS projects the organization will conduct on an on going basis.  The objective is to place the students understanding so one can move with confidence the day after the course is completed.

2-Day Course
This course covers the same material as the 3-day course but excludes the 3rd day independent student project.  This is a Certified Trimble training course as is the 3-day course.

1-Day Course
This course covers basic GPS in the morning followed by field data collection and processing in the afternoon.  This is not a Certified Trimble training course.   Items covered:

bulletBasic GPS
bulletData Logger Configuration

Custom Course
A customer course can be designed to meet a clients specific training needs.  Such as a Trimble GeoXH ESRI ArcPad combined custom course.
