Workshop: Design Considerations for Advanced Map Making with QGIS

This workshop offers a more in depth look at the map design options than the previous two workshops in terms of labels, color, adding grid lines, and inset maps. A little experience would be nice (one of the earlier QGIS workshops would be fine) but not strictly necessary.
