Significant talent shortage in the Infrastructure Management space has opened up multiple career options for aspiring students and professionals. As part of the agreement, NIIT will offer training programs 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 will provide training on Cisco’s authorized 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 360,000 engineers in the next five years, a six-fold increase over present employment levels
