Siemens launches IT learning

Mumbai-based Siemens Information Systems (SISL) has

launched its IT certification training initiative in partnership with UK-based

Wave Technologies. The courses will be initially conducted at Siemens IT

Learning centers in Chennai and Delhi.

The training is targeted at executives of both corporate

as well as IT professionals. The courses will include Systems Engineer and

Solutions Developer Track of Windows 2000, CCNA and CCNP of Cisco. The courses

will employ the Boot Camp Methodology, which ensures that the pace of the

courses matches that of an individual's learning, and will combine

instructor-led, self-study and mentoring sessions.

AR Laud, MD, SISL, said, "There exists a tremendous

shortage of certified and trained Indian IT professionals both in the country

and overseas. The courses will ensure that professionals are trained in keeping

with the fast-changing technologies."
