IT Directors and Managers who are interested in Microsoft certifications for their teams are invited to a briefing by Chris Akelian, instructor from Cuesta College's Computer and Networking Technology Department. He will be talking about new training options offered to IT professionals by Microsoft through the college starting this fall. This new lab is employee friendly, because it is flexible and very affordable.
The event is organized by Clever Ducks CEO/CTO, Peter Kardel as part of his company's IT Director Breakfast Series. An 18-year veteran of the technology industry, Kardel founded Clever Ducks, an IT consulting firm in San Luis Obispo. He knows how important local training options are for techs. "In the past we've had to send people to the Bay Area or Los Angeles for access to this kind of training and certification. This is a great opportunity for our IT community rise to an even higher level," states Kardel.
Akelian adds, "Cuesta is committed to providing industry with a locally trained workforce that meets industry standards. Certification based training and testing here at Cuesta College will provide this opportunity to both students and professionals in the community. We are excited to be offering the resources of the Microsoft IT academy, Cisco Networking Academy and testing options through Pearson Vue as well as others in our courses this fall. I look forward to sharing the details of these opportunities at your Directors breakfast meeting since industry support in this endeavor is crucial to the success of the program."
Since early this year, Clever Ducks has hosted a monthly IT Director Breakfast on the second Wednesday of each month. The idea is to create a peer group for great discussions with other technology professionals. Industry peers collaborate in an informal environment with a catered breakfast and to discuss topics including current technology, the future of technology, and other IT management issues.
