Training: R&D Division get trained in QGIS, Round 1


Latihan: Bhg. Penyelidikan & Pembangunan dapat latihan QGIS, Kali Pertama

Atas permintaan Bhg.Penyelidikan dan Pembangunan (BPP), Bahagian Maklumat Gunatanah Negara yang diwakil oleh Fadzlan dan saya sudi memberi latihan QGIS kepada beberapa pegawai BPP dalam QGIS. Maklumbalas yang diterima selepas latihan amat menggalakkan: semua bersetuju ianya wajar diperluaskan untuk manafaat lain-lain bahagian dan semua bersetuju pendekatan yang diambil telah menjanakan suasana kondusif bagi latihan tersebut antaranya:
  • Dilakukan secara teori dan aplikasi/hands-on;
  • Dihadkan kepada 8 peserta/sesi kerana dapat memberi tumpuan personal;
  • Latihan dibilik perbincangan BMGN memberi suasana informal dan mesra terus memberi keyakinan kepada peserta pendiam untuk menyuarakan soalan;
  • Diadakan tanpa manual meningkatkan konsentrasi.
Training: R&D Division get trained in QGIS, Round 1

Upon the request of the Research and development Division (R&D), the National Landuse Information Division (NLI) represented by Fadzlan and me agreed to give QGIS training to various R&D officers in QGIS. The feedbacks received were most encouraging: all agreed it should be xtended to other divisions and all agreed the approach taken to generate a condusive environment for training including: 
  • Theory and hands-on;
  • Limted to 8 participants/session to be more personal;
  • Tarining held at NLI discussion room gave an informal and friendly atmosphere and gave confidence to quiet participants to open up;
  • No manual provided made for more concentration.

Kesimpulannya, kurikulum latihan yang merangkumi tempoh 2 hari dipendekkan kepada 1 hari. Tahap latihan adalah intermediate dan diteruskan kepada advance jika peserta dapat maju ke peringkat analisis.  Memandangkan sebelum ini, kami juga telah memberi latihan QGIS kepada pegawai BOMBA,  keputusan dibuat untuk memanjangkan latihan QGIS kepada mana-mana pihak kerajaaan yang berminat ada latihan QGIS. Kalau berminat nak tahu siapa yang boleh dihubungi untuk memberi pandangan peribadi mengenai QGIS, sila rujuk disini:

To conclude, the training curriculum was a 2 day course crashed into 1 day. The level of training was intermediate followed by advice if participants wanted to proceed to analytical stage. As we had already provided training to BOMBA fire officers, a decision was made to extend training to any government agency interested in QGIS training.
