Who is This Course For?
For beginners and advanced users familiar with the Esri environment who want to stand out in the market with in-depth knowledge of ArcGIS Experience Builder.
How long Does the course take?
Although the total duration of the lessons is about 5.5 hours, they are modular and you can return to them anytime. You can take the course at your own pace – there’s no set time limit to complete it.
Approximately how many credits are needed to complete the entire course?
As for the credits, the cost is approximately 0.06 credits per 24 hours for data storage. The rest of the course components are free of charge. The only exception is one analysis-related lesson, but it’s not required – you can simply watch it. So the total depends on how many days it takes you to complete the course.
Why Now Is the Perfect Time to Learn Experience Builder?
Did you know that Web AppBuilder, the predecessor of Experience Builder, will be retired in the first quarter of 2026.
What does this mean for you? It's an opportunity because companies currently using Web AppBuilder will need to migrate their applications to ArcGIS Experience Builder. Whether you're just starting or already an expert, it's worth noting that ArcGIS Experience Builder is a relatively new solution. This means that there are few people on the market who know it well, giving you a great chance to stand out among other GIS specialists.
Why is it worth it?

Highly Modular – Watch Only What You Need
The course is primarily practical. Why? Because it was created by someone with over 5 years of GIS experience, who has been building Experience Builder apps at Orange Polska from a hands-on perspective.
Designed Especially for Beginners
If you're not familiar with ArcGIS Online – don't worry. The course doesn't dive deep into that. Instead, you'll get access to ready-to-use data provided by the instructor. You can follow along and build the app step by step – just like the instructor, or take your own creative path.
Structured for Engagement
What does that mean? Most importantly – it's not boring. The course was created by a former Esri Polska trainer and is designed to surprise and keep you engaged with a dynamic narrative that helps you discover new concepts in a hands-on and enjoyable way.
The course is designed for both beginners and advanced users. I've planned two learning modes:
Summer mode – allows you to quickly go through the basic topics and immediately start configuring your app.
Normal mode – provides a deep dive into the intricacies of Experience Builder, including advanced features such as working with views and frameworks, configuring mobile apps, and connecting applications from the ArcGIS web catalog.
Regarding the Summer Mode and Normal Mode – the way it works is that the knowledge presented in Summer Mode is actually the most essential part of the course. If you skip Summer Mode, you won’t find that information repeated in the Normal Mode videos.
During the course, I will provide the data I've prepared, so you can practice alongside me or try it on your own after watching the videos. Each part of the course will be divided into short videos, enabling quick access to specific features and tools you're currently working on.
Upon completing this course, you'll be able to independently create and configure apps in ArcGIS Experience Builder — and proudly call yourself an expert in building ArcGIS Experience Builder applications!
