MapInfo Version 10.0 Migration Training
The release of MapInfo Professional version 10.0 in 2009 has introduced
some huge changes to the interface and Layer Control, which lies
at the core of the operation of this software application. CDR has
taken the steps to design a one day course to help users of previous
versions migrate their skills over to the new version. The intention
is to give each delegate the information required to effectively
utilise the newer features in version 10. Many of these new features
are aimed at working more efficiently and you should see many tasks
taking less time to perform.
Whilst attendance on the MapInfo Foundation course (MI2) is useful
it is by no means required. However a working knowledge of MapInfo
Professional is fundamental (e.g. How to open and close files, dealing
with multiple windows, layer control etc)
Throughout the course we use examples from realistic business cases,
and there is an opportunity at the end of the course for students
to discuss the specifics of their business case with the trainer.
The course covers all aspects of the new features and explains
where you may gain advantage. Previous version releases of MapInfo
Professional have not really warranted a full day training but it
is obvious from our experience and user feedback that this release
is worthy of spending time getting to grips with it.
Like all of CDR's training courses the Version 10 Migration course
is fully "hands on" with each delegate using a dedicated
PC with the latest software versions installed. Comprehensive course
notes are issued to each delegate at the start of the course for
no extra cost.

New Interface
Working with the new toolbars.

New Tools
The new Proportion Overlap tool, Easyloader and MapCAD tools. MapCAD
was introduced in version 9.5 and has now been further enhanced.

more effectively.
