Running from May 2025 to end of September 2025.
Welcome to the Cisco sponsored free, CCST (Cisco Certified Support Technician) - Networking and Cyber - Teacher education and outreach programme.
You may be an educator who has considered using NetAcad for one (or many) of your courses and as yet, do not know how - or maybe simply lacked the time to discover more. Or you may be someone who has not (yet) used NetAcad.
The aim of this project is to help educators discover what may be accomplished for free, using and of course exploiting NetAcad as part of your current educational practice.
This training is free, NetAcad is also free - the Open University Cisco ASC (academy support centre) is working with experts from the University of Wales: Trinity St David and Glasgow Clyde College to help you, the capable educator make more of NetAcad.
Signing up is simple - use your work related email address and sign up on the link to the right. Of course, if you are already a Cisco Networking Academy instructor - please use that email to join.
