Cisco Systems is considered to be one of the world wide leaders in networking for the Internet. Innovation in communications technology is constantly expanding the scope of networking. Much like the role that modern telephony has played in creating international business activities and competition, networks have helped create global industries. With a predicted shortage of over eighty thousand network skilled employees in the UK alone, and six hundred thousand in Europe, networking qualifications are at a premium.
London Metropolitan University, as a "Cisco Systems Regional Academy" (RA) was established in 1998 within the former University of North London's School of Communications Technology and Mathematical Sciences (now Communications Technology Cluster within Faculty of Computing (FoC)), is one of the very few places in the UK which has been certified by Cisco Systems to provide CCNP training in one of the most advanced CISCO training labs in the UK.
The University is offering part-time and weekend courses in computer networks and internetworking. These programmes are structured to teach students the skills needed to design, build and maintain computer networks. These courses will enable successful candidates to take the Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) and Cisco Certified Networking Professional (CCNP) examinations.
Cisco currently dominates the router market. Networking professionals have no choice but to become familiar with Cisco technologies and to begin looking at training options for Cisco products.
Today's corporations depend on their information networks for mission-critical operations, and are looking for highly trained networking professionals to keep them up and running at maximum performance. Qualified networking experts are in short supply and high demand - there are currently more Cisco networking jobs available than professionals to fill them.
