The Cisco Academy Training Centre, which forms part of the School of Information and Communication Technology, won the “Best Regional Academy Award” for South Africa at the Cisco African Academy Safari Conference that was held in May. The Academy won the award for, among other things; quality of training, communication and the number of instructors trained.
Several of the Academy Program courses are integrated into the Diploma & Degree programs offered by the School of ICT. The program is truly international – students in PE learn the same as students from all over the world. The same material is used and all Cisco academies are bound by the same rules and standards. As such, the Cisco courses that form part of the formal IT qualifications at the NMMU, are recognized internationally.
Congratulations to Mr Gratitude Kudyachete, the Academy Manager and his team!
