Since 2006, we have amassed experience working with the Financial, Health Care, Telecomm, and Legal industries, as well as with public sector Government Agencies. We have seen and worked with the disconnect between the professionals in these industries and the technological advances that have both improved and complicated the way those industries operate.
That’s why we put together this course together, specifically designed to teach the basics of what Cloud Computing is, how it works, and the user’s role in keeping their IT infrastructure secure, efficient, and within professional and statutory regulations.
