<i>Migrating from ArcGIS Desktop to ArcGIS Pro - Don't Wait Too Long</i> that has been a discussion among our GPL list

materials that may be useful in your enterprise planning.<o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="color:#1F497D">I agree with Eric that I think it is definitely time to start looking at ArcGIS Pro and start defining plans for future adoption, looking at aligning with agency needs, understanding the needed training, etc….</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:.5in">
<span style="color:#1F497D">However, with regards to ArcMap deprecation, your best and official source of information is the Esri published Product Life Cycle documents – there is a document for each product but here is the link to the ArcMap Life Cycle:</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:.5in">
<span style="color:#1F497D">If you scroll down, you will see the life cycle for the previous versions as well.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;margin-left:.5in">
<span style="color:#1F497D">If you click on the Product life cycle Policy at the top right you will get a full description of what support is/is not at each phase (there is a quick table at the top as well).

</span><span style="color:#1F497D">ArcMap 10.1 entered Mature support in January 2016 and will be retired in Dec 2017. In Mature support, you can still call in tech support for help.

</span><span style="color:#1F497D">ArcMap 10.5 which was released in Dec 2016 is expected to be in Mature Support (ie, you can call in for support) until the end of 2022.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

</span><span style="color:#1F497D">Training materials are still available for older version – if you go to the training website (</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><a href="https://www.esri.com/training/catalog/search/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#0563C1">https://www.esri.com/training/catalog/search/</span></a></span><span style="color:#1F497D">)
and simply browse the catalog, you will see plenty of content still for ArcGIS 10….. now certainly instructor led training classes will tend to be on the most recent release – right now, content is on 10.4 and starting to be on 10.5….
