Some GIS programs are easy to learn, even without a manual or help file. Others may require a manual or help files, especially for advanced features. Some require more training to perform analyses. Professional journals, books, workshops and schools are several ways GIS skills can be acquired. Reading GIS journals, joining a GIS professional association, and attending GIS conferences are common ways of staying current in the field.
