IMPLAN Classroom Program Overview

WHAT IS IMPLAN CLASSROOM?

IMPLAN Classroom is a program that allows college professors to teach economic impact analysis to their students with hands-on experience conducting research. Students are granted access to the same geographies purchased under the professor and have full access to examine details of their regions, create impacts, and view results. Students gain experience with not only the application, but also the critical thinking required to frame, analyze, interpret, and critique economic impact studies and regional analyses. 

Professors have access to the latest IMPLAN application and resources to teach their students anything from a basic analysis to complicated projects with the full range of IMPLAN data including environmental and occupational information. Students also receive full access to our support site and training on demand for those wishing to learn more outside of the classroom. 

Join over 300 students in 18 colleges that learned IMPLAN in the classroom last year.
