New Delhi, Feb. 2Global networking giant Cisco and talent development company NIIT have joined hands to develop and enhance the IT infrastructure management talent pool in the Asia-Pacific region.

As part of the agreement, NIIT would offer training programmes on Cisco’s latest tools and technologies in the networking and infrastructure management space across NIIT’s select IT education centres in the Asia-Pacific region. NIIT would provide training on Cisco’s authorised curriculum and enable Cisco certification for students aspiring to build careers as networking professionals and system engineers.

The partnership is in line with Cisco’s aim to expand India’s networking workforce capacity to 3.6 lakh engineers in the next five years, a six-fold increase over present employment levels. Element K, the US-based learning solutions company, and an integral part of NIIT’s training network now, has been a Cisco Certified Learning Solutions Partner for North America.
