AirJaldi calling Sidhbari...

 

The past few months at the AirJaldi Network Academy have been quite hectic and very fruitful. Amongst other things were eight weeks spent in Delhi, a key outcome of which is a brand new Red Hat Certified Engineer in our midst! (Me! :-) Of course, it's best to set this fancy titles (and its barefy impressive acronym) aside... This qualification is valuable for the expanded and formalized understanding of Linux internals and basics; a first step, a launch pad from which to blast off towards being "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger." As AirJaldi grows, with its technology and experience spinning off into a rapidly expanding network, there are exciting opportunities to hone and develop these skills. But more on all that, in other posts and at other times.

As importantly, another iteration of Cisco's IT Essentials: PC Hardware and Software is almost over, just in time before the onslaught of the monsoons is unleashed. Staged a few kilometres from Dharamshala, participants for this episode of ITE were members and associates of Nishtha and Jagori Grameen , two prominent local grassroots NGOs.

Aloha VTC!

 
For around six weeks, beginning in the second half of August and ending late in September, the AirJaldi Network Academy was invited to conduct on-site training at the Tibetan SOS Vocational Training Centre (VTC) at Selakui, a small town 17km. from Dehradun, in the state of Uttarakhand, India. The participants were 21 students from the institution who were close to graduation, a time when they are to venture onwards, putting their skills and abilities to practice in professional work environments.

Two Courses old!

Inaugurated on a brilliant winter day a little over six weeks ago, the Airjaldi Network Academy is now two courses old, and set firm on its mandate - of providing innovative and practical courses on Information and Communication Technology (ICT), with a particular emphasis on building wireless Internet networks in rural areas. We are now approaching an even more exciting juncture, in which we, the only certified Cisco Networking Academy in Himachal Pradesh that is open to the public, is inviting all interested to enroll in our courses.
