If
you look at the major reasons why software product companies like
Microsoft are so successfulyou will find that the aggressive marketing
strategy is backed up by a focused approach on educating people
about their technologies. Sniffer Technologies, a division of Network
Associates, too is thinking on the same lines and has plans of identifying
training partners in India who have a large presence across the
country.
 Says
Rich Baich, senior director, Worldwide Education Services,
Sniffer Technologies, “Though we have a extremely successful
product in Sniffer, there is a lack of trained professionals available
in the country today. Hence we feel there is a need for us to tie
up with a specialised training institute which would ensure availability
of skill sets.
The
Sniffer Certified Professional Programme (SCCP) will ensure that
companies will have trained professionals to ensure maximum uptime
of their network.” For the uninformed, Sniffer is a network
management tool, which monitors network traffic and collects key
statistics allowing network managers to extract and view vital information
to troubleshoot and manage networks.
Sniffer
has already initiated talks with major IT training institutes in
India and proposes to offer its courses by the second half of this
year. The IT certification programme for network management, which
was developed in collaboration with Sniffer University, has been
created to educate network professionals in Sniffer and equip them
with hands on experience in real world environments.
