Networking Academy Programme - A network with strong partners

Prof. Dr. Thomas Meuser Hochschule Niederrhein Professor of Computer Networks and Computer Network Security

The threats to our vital IT infrastructures are omnipresent and becoming more and more dramatic. The decisive factor in containing them is an excellently trained workforce for all areas of activity involving IT systems in business, government and society. Employees of companies and organisations, especially specialists and managers, can acquire these necessary skills in the cyber security learning laboratory at Hochschule Niederrhein.

The Cisco Networking Academy programme aims to support the training of IT professionals, provide young people with valuable qualifications and therefore support digital development in a very concrete way on site. Especially in the field of cyber security, a growing network of Networking Academies is emerging, which are integrated into schools, vocational schools and universities.
