While a deep understanding of cloud computing technologies and over 10 years experience in the IT field are pre-requisites, our materials are totally new and we will train you through instructor videos. You willalso take the classes yourself. All materials will be on our learning management system, and in-class learning will combine online materials with live instruction.
Support:
The National We provide support by conducting review webinars for all students everywhere during the weekend. All lab work is designed and graded by us. Each module final exam is online, and is designed, administered and graded by the NCTA. Thus as an instructor, your primary job is to create an immersive, magical learning experience. We are not just looking for PhDs or programmers with great resumes. We are seeking special individuals who are capable of really teaching and reaching our students with enthusiasm.
