Networking, Operating Systems & Security Short Courses

Networks and operating systems are core components of commercial computing systems. Networks have a variety of structural and configurational issues, which need to be addressed in the early stages, particularly when in a corporate setting. Security is also an essential feature, needing focus and detailed treatment, to ensure the integrity of data and applications.

The suite of networking, operating systems and computer-security short courses provides instruction on key aspects, attributes and practices pertaining to the development and support of robust commercial I.T. systems

A variety of real-world examples and scenarios will be utilized to underpin the training program.
