Message from Chuck Robins, Cisco CEO
At Cisco, we believe in the power of technology and what it makes possible. During this pandemic, we’ve witnessed how technology has helped us reimagine our lives, become a critical lifeline for businesses, and connect our world—ensuring children continue to learn, providing people access to healthcare, allowing businesses to operate, and helping loved ones to stay close even if physically apart. Cisco sits at the heart of so many of these connections—helping keep our customers, partners, and employees safe, secure, and productive in this new world. Now more than ever, we believe that technology can be used for good to provide an opportunity for all, make a meaningful impact, and bring about a future that is better and brighter than the reality of today.

Cisco regularly gives presentations about jobs at Cisco and partners. This presentation offers background information by Cisco about building products and jobs that support partners and customers to use the products. Cisco Technical Marketing Engineers (TME) play an important role, because they are both technical and communicative.
To build a product like Catalyst 9200 , we need to ask:
Do we really need to build a new product?
What are customers looking for?
How many and what type of ports do we need?
What software features are required?
How will we license and price this product?
Once the product is built, we need to:
Educate our sales teams about it
Inform our customers of the new product
Write technical collateral to help with using it
Collect customer feedback and continue improving it

Kanu Gupta, Technical Marketing Engineer

Cisco Networking Academy Programme
Give your students the ability to be a global problem solver with the technical and cognitive skills needed by employers
The world increasingly runs on digital networks. Organizations of all kinds depend on a workforce educated to design, build and operate these networks.
The current digital revolution is projected to connect 50 billion things to the internet by 2020. Analysts expect the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector to generate an increasing number of high-skill, in-demand jobs across a broad spectrum of industries.
There aren’t enough people with the expertise to fill these positions. Your students are ready to take up the challenge. All they need is the opportunity, and you can provide that by adding Cisco Networking Academy courses to your education program.
