TechnoCampus gets international Security Certified

Program certification

Dubai's leading IT training institute equipped to provide advanced
network security training to IT professionals

Dubai -December 13, 2002

TechnoCampus, a leading training and development institute based in
UAE, has recently acquired the prestigious Security Certified
Program certification that authorizes it to provide leading edge IT
security training for IT professionals. TechnoCampus
is the fourth SCP partner in the UAE.

The Security Certified Program certification is a two-level
vendor-neutral program that recognizes an institute's ability
to impart specialized training in IT security, an area that continues
to worry businesses across the region, in view of numerous
viruses, DoS attacks and other threats that cost businesses millions of
dollars.

The SCP certification crowns the many achievements of TechnoCampus as
the region's leading training institute,? said Angela
Wilson, Business Manager, TechnoCampus. ?The certification brings
recognition to our training courses and imposes on us a
new responsibility to serve a market that is thirsty for IT security.
The certification has already triggered several inquiries
from IT professionals from the region. One of its greatest strengths is
vendor neutrality that ensures well-rounded training
that can be applied in all situations, irrespective of vendor
loyalties.?

Like other parts of the world, awareness about the critical importance
of IT security is being increasingly realized in the Middle East.

Studies have shown that organizations face 85 per cent
internal security breaches and 15 per cent external breaches.
As a result, most businesses regard enhancing enterprise network
security as a strategic priority. The primary concern of
any business is to prevent, detect and respond to threats. The SCP
ensures that IT professionals are ready to carry out this
job expertly and quickly.

Companies looking for secure and protect networks look up to SCP as
the ultimate resource for achieving their objectives,?
said Wilson. ?As the authorized SCP provider, TechnoCampus is proud to
offer SCP's leading edge solutions to IT professionals
who can then confidently take up the challenges of protecting their
companies' networks by applying the knowledge and expertise
acquired by them in the program. We have developed just the right kind
of curriculum that creates professionals who can make
sure that IT security is never at risk.

Technocampus is placed to serve the Arabic speaking pool of IT
professionals, as the institute has an Arab trainer who is
fully qualified in the SCP techniques. Rami Quddoumi, a Software
Executive, is a qualified Arab trainer who will assist the
non English speakers with hand on training to cater to the majority of
the Arabic speakers in the region.

The SCP is targeted at network professionals, network associates,
network engineers, network administrators and anyone with
a strong IT background in Networking. It is expected that the growing
demand for IT security will prompt many IT graduates
to acquire SCP skills to cater to the needs of the market.

TechnoCampus, a Dubai-based training and development institute has a
mission to fulfill the need of UAE-based organisations
for professional skills, by providing a range of training programs that
combine IT tools with business applications. It offers
a series of broad-based programs designed towards career development
and career consolidation programs in addition to short-term
courses for the enhancement of computer-related skills.--Keralamonitor.com
