Benelux Academy Day - Cisco Amsterdam - 17 May 17

   

At the Academy Day organized in collaboration with Cisco Amsterdam we were able to welcome more than 80 delegates from education to learn about new developments in the ICT domain and about new online curricula. The Academy Day is becoming a prime networking event for innovation in education. An interesting evolution is that there is a lot of support from the IT sector with offerings from Cisco, Oracle, CompTIA, LPI, NDG, Suse and FastLane.

Highlights

• Dive into Country Digitization & Internet of Things projects in the Netherlands
• Overview of the 33 courses in the Networking Academy Curriculum
• Practical Workshop on Internet of Things
• Simulations with Packet Tracer v7 
• Interactive session about innovation competences and active learning with Hackathons and Packathons
• Interesting offerings from Cisco with Big Data & Analytics and DevNet, from Oracle Academy, Suse Academy and FastLane Summer School

Get Employees Working in New Ways - Building 10

This is a virtual company visit of Cisco's refurbished headquarters Building 10.

The technologies implemented into Cisco Building 10 were created specifically to encourage employee interaction, thus sparking the seeds of innovation not previously imaginable.

• Our people can work anywhere, on any device at any time. We find that our employees are much more mobile within the new work environment, working in a variety of different spaces throughout the day.
• Smart Spaces is a tool that allows an employee to identify, reserve and locate a workspace setting that is most appropriate for the work activities they are looking to perform.  Once the workspace is selected, the solution automatically configures the space to the individual preferences of the employee.
• Our Connected Workplace deploys a wide variety of space types to support the different work needs employees display through any given day. Open, collaborative space, quiet rooms, creativity zones, outdoor meeting areas, eCafes, residential soft seating areas are all provided and equipped with high speed wireless connectivity and video everywhere. 
• Building 10 has been outfitted with video capabilities in order to reach employees around the globe. Each meeting room is armed with the audio and video needs of each employee to connect in meetings via telepresence.
