The Advanced Network Engineer course is designed for IT Professionals either already in-situ,

under pressure of time to come up to speed with Network high-end configuartion, services and

applications or for personnel wishing to re-enter, re-role or show a perspective employer that

they are confident with the latest LOB application for IT Support.

Even though time out-of-the-office is at a premium there is just too much material to cover in

one week and thus the course takes place over two 5 day blocks (taken as one package or two

distinct parts  (Part 1 & Part 2)).

We believe it fills a gap in the market within IT technical training where all too often

certification or training takes many weeks to complete, covers a significant ammount of

information that the experianced IT professional is already well versed in and is too expensive

in today's austere climate.

The course pre-requisites are as follows:

A min of 2 years hands-on IT networking systems.  Familiarity and comfort with TCP/IP and other

critical LAN/WAN/WLAN protocols.  Ideally candidates would already hold at least one IT

Certification such as Microsoft MCITP, MCDBA, MCDST or CISCO CCNA,or Comptia N+,A+, Server+

Security+ etc..

The course utilises Client/Server Hardware and software (including Blade Server), Imaging Tools,

Virtual Images and hands-on Labs.  It is centred around Microsoft and Cisco systems with some

Linux and VMWARE.

Whilst it does not prepare candidates for any one particular Certification or exam it will be a

great start towards many.  In the fullness of time we hope to have an exam associated with the

training adding yet further credibility to the content.
