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.
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
This video is from Cisco on Cisco and offers a behind the scenes view at a Cisco Office. Tracking a real life product deployment in Charlotte, NC with wireless networks, switches, servers and routers.
Internet traffic has seen a compounded annual growth rate of 30 percent or higher over the last 5 years. It is anticipated that by 2022:
IP traffic will increase to 396 exabytes per month
1/3 of the Internet traffic will be in metropolitan service areas
More than 28 billion devices and connections will be online
48 percent of all connections will be video-capable
The forthcoming release of 5G enabled devices will continue the insatiable demand for bandwidth and network performance through better speeds and reduced latency. We will see new types of traffic generated from connected devices, online gaming platforms, video conferencing platforms, which will result in a massive increase in the number of devices deployed in the network. To keep pace with this growth, network providers need to focus on simple, secure, consistent, and highly automated operations in all areas of the network.
The goal of "Find Yourself in the Future" is to connect NetAcad and other students to Cisco experts talking about the latest technology trends in the industry.
The current four-part series supports CCNA v7 curricula adoption topics include:
CCNA Certification firstly becomes more "generic". Moreover, it becomes also more "specialistic". I am very happy for Devnet certification and for the new names of the specific certifications tracks: Enterprise; Security; Datacenter; Service Provider; Collaboration.
Watch this video for a vivid explanation with Susie Wee from Cisco.

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

Play with Linux and Python on the Networking Devices, 8 May,9:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time: Register Here
What app would you develop if you could run it directly on a router or a switch? What full-stack system would you want to deploy and run directly on a router or a switch if they could run a full Linux operating system? Now that your imagination is running wild, join this session to learn how on a network infrastructure you can now run your Python code directly from the IOS CLI. You will also learn how to spin up a full Linux container on a router with either your favorite network performance-monitoring tool or with a chat-bot app that lets you manage the network from a messenger app on your phone.
If you register, you will get access to the recording.
Before, During, and After a Security Attack, 17 April,9:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time: Register Here
Have you ever wondered what happens before a bad actor attacks a network? The hope is that their attempt to infiltrate the infrastructure will be eliminated by the layers of security protection built into the network. However, sometimes the attackers exploit an unknown, so-called, 0-day vulnerability to get inside. Do not panic – even during the attack, we can collect valuable information and learn how the attack is being-executed and if or where it is spreading.
Moreover, based on the collected information, we know where we should concentrate our cleaning efforts after the attack has been discovered and eliminated. Join this session to learn more about threat protection, and how simple scripts with programmability and automation can turn your response time to an attack from minutes to seconds.
If you register, you will get access to the recording.
Maarten Druwe of Cisco Systems explaining Collaboration tools
On 19 December 2018 a group of members from BiASC were invited at the Cisco BeLux office in Diegem to learn the ins and outs of online collaboration. Frank, Maarten and Rudy of Cisco BeLux thoroughly demonstrated the use of online collaboration tools to a group of about 15 academy trainers, allowing participants to ask all the questions about new communication tools and methods. Demonstrations of Collaboration Systems need restricted groups of about 15 participants.
Webex Teams and Webex Meet are very well designed with open standards and are quite user friendly. If you like to experiment with Webex just send a message to <yvan@biasc.be>. Education prices are free for students and one euro per academy user (teachers, manangement, admin staff).
To start using all the possibilities a "presenter" needs a decent introduction. "Participating" in online collaboration is easy, just press "Join".
