<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Everyone<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I recently had a few students enrol in my Cert IV (Networking) ICA40411 course who were not up with the Networking demands ( they did not choose Cisco as a co-requisite ) and requested to do programming as part of their qualification.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, students asked to do programming !<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, I modified/adjusted the course to import a number of programming units including Java, Visual Studio, Mobile Application Development, SQL, OOP etc.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here are some of the units for the programming . You can find full unit documentation at
