On a regular basis BiASC receives messages from active members about errors in course content, labs, quizzes or tests. Cisco NetAcad Support advises the following approach. Please use the community related to the actual course to report errors or remarks.
HOW TO?
If the user is a non-student user, please have him post this issue in the Community Forum.
We recommend using the Community Forum which is a great tool to get answers on technical issues users have come across.
Non-student users can access the Community Forum by going to www.netacad.com>Hover over “?” and click “Community Forum”
As an ASC in Belgium Belgian IT Academy Support Center (BiASC) often receives messages from NetAcad members regarding mistakes in the online courses, online tests and hands-on labs (also PT). Academy Instructors are able to report errors to Cisco Support
Non-student users can report errors found in the curriculum to Cisco Support [netacadsupport@netacad.com].
Please provide the following elements when reporting an error in the curriculum:
The name of the course
The error in the course, page # or activity name
If possible a screenshot of the error
As soon as you update the case with these information, Cisco Support will forward your case to the NetAcad Curriculum and Assessment Team for review of the errors.
Through this difficult time with no people in offices, training centers and schools, BiASC is busy with a lot of topics, making use of extra time having not to travel or commute for 10-15 h every week.

At BiASC, PXL and HOWEST we have started experimenting with specific hardware to improve online teaching. Sensational! Additional Webex Support: URL: https://www.netacad.com/learning-never-stops
Webex Teams and Webex Meetings are cloud applications that can be used with nearly all computer systems, portables, tablets and smartphones.
Using the extra devices that are available gives some extra touch that works very well in a professional education environment.
We believe that the video and sound quality should be nearly perfect, because we are distance education professionals.

Hello everyone,
As you know, the situation is rapidly evolving, and it is with regret that we decided to postpone the event of 27 March so that you all have the possibility to setup something nice in a virtual conference. The date should be around end of April or May.
We would like to keep the same schedule. The idea would be, once again, to let you give an overall presentation of your IT academies in the morning, more suited for beginners or people who are not already part of your programs. The afternoon should be geared towards more advanced users of your products who would like to learn some new stuff about it.
As a reminder, there’s about a hundred academies part of BiASC who could potentially view all your presentations.
Schools and higher education institutions are facing unprecedented needs to close their physical classrooms, due to circumstances resulting from COVID-19. We’re here to keep your classrooms connected via Cisco’s collaboration tools. In this way learning doesn’t have to stop.
Clicking the link below, you’ll find content to support teachers and institutions to teach remotely, student and parent guides, and resources for IT departments to rapidly plan, deploy, and onboard users for Cisco’s collaboration tool Webex Teams. Students can join a meeting with a desktop or laptop computer, a tablet or even a smartphone.
Now is the time in which online education is more relevant than ever. NetAcad members from BiASC are entitled to use a full Webex admin account (up to a maximum number that we are able to provide). Equally, all other educational institutions can use a free full access account until the end of the current academic year.
This page gives basic information for newcomers along with a video reference to a deep dive explanation of the major components of the Webex ecosystem.
NetAcad instructors who have been using Webex for distance learning are attracted to this very useful collection of open standard communication and cloud collaboration tools. Webex Teams & Meetings offers all the possibilities that you get from other well known cloud applications. Only in Webex all the tools are integrated.
Participants can join a meeting with a desktop or laptop computer, a tablet or even a smartphone.
Open Standards and Integration Webex is a combination of functionalities that you find in apps like WhatsApp, Messenger, Skype, Zoom, Dropbox, Adobe Connect ... Moreover, Webex is offering a very intuitive screen sharing, annotation, chat and polling tool. The elegant whiteboard application allows instructors to explain design concepts with the use of visual representations. Meetings can be recorded and all the necessary files can be up- and downloaded. Webex facilitates integration with calendar applications Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Google Gmail.
Start simple, step by step For group meetings and online classes we advise you to use the Webex Meetings tool with your students. This is the most simple for all participants. For small group or individual coaching we advise Webex Teams, in which students can also collaborate without a teacher.
A video has been created for you giving background information for professional and educational usage of Webex We particularly advise to watch the part starting at time 16:24 until 45:54

A quality professional education program needs more than just content. Cisco Networking Academy is based on education research, learning engineering, innovative media animations and much more. Soon, you will even get a 3D learning experience. Contact us to learn the future of learning.
Netacad est un programme interactif de formation qui propose des contenus en lien avec de nombreuses thématiques de l'IT telles que l'infrastructure, la sécurité, la programmation et les systèmes d'exploitation.
L'accès que les académies netacad peuvent proposer à leurs apprenants nécessite que les instructeurs qui dispensent le contenu disposent d'une accréditation.
Les instructeurs accrédités se voient bénéficier de plusieurs atouts pour déployer une formation flexible au regard du profil de leurs apprenants: cours en ligne multilingues, évaluations alignées sur les contenus, préparations de cours, dont les supports de projection et les laboratoires pratiques. Le contenu et la formation bénéficient d'une mise à jour régulière et sont internationalement reconnus. Par ailleurs, les accréditations ont une validité mondiale.
En Wallonie, le programme se verrait accéléré si davantage d'instructeurs étaient accrédités. Soutenu par Digital Wallonia et par Cisco CSR, BiASC est en mesure de proposer à de nombreux instructeurs de participer à un programme d'accréditation, et ce, à des conditions particulièrement intéressantes, sans frais dans la plupart des cas.
IT Essentials, CCNA et CCNA security sont les programmes ciblés par cette action d'intensification.
Les profils de formateurs ciblés sont des formateurs liés à une académie netacad existante, des enseignants du secondaire, du supérieur, mais aussi des anciens étudiants ayant finalisé un parcours scolaire à finalité informatique.
N'hésitez pas à vous manifester afin d'obtenir d'information: Yvan Rooseleer <yvan.rooseleer@biasc.be>
