In the year 2008, Hari G Sharma, Director ­ Technical, IP Net Solutions realized that a number of IT companies needed personnel who were adept with the hardware and Networking skills and thus required someone who could teach the necessary skills in a short time frame. By establishing IP Net Solution, a leading IT Training and outsourced business services provider, he sets out to fill this gap.

The training academy offers various courses in the IT Infrastructure Management (IMS) domain such as Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) Voice/Collaboration, CCIE (Security) , CCIE (R&S), Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) , CCNP Voice , CCNP Security , Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) , CCNA Security, CCNA Voice, MCITP, Linux, Cloud Computing , Ethical Hacking, A+ and N+.

"By providing these courses, we have been able to ensure that the personnel working in IT companies or IT departments in various companies have a better understanding of the processes that they are supposed to perform due to the variety of skills they gain on completion of the courses," says Hari.

Hari G Sharma says, "Whenever we recruit a trainer for a course, we ensure that the trainer understands how to go about teaching the subject and how to clear the doubts that trainees ask."

The institute is led by professionals from the industry and hence has carefully recruited their trainers from major IT companies who have crucial years of work experience in the field and a valid certification to provide training. The trainers who work with the institute full time have rich experience in the Networking field to deliver the training. The institute has also been able to bring several IT experts to conduct exclusive seminars on industry-oriented awareness programs for the trainees.

The students and trainees who attend the programs are able to benefit from them as these trainers and domain experts are able to share their first-hand experiences in the field after earning the certification.

"Whenever we recruit a trainer for a course, we ensure that the trainer understands how to go about teaching the subject and how to clear the doubts that trainees ask," says Hari. Apart from the skill-based training, the institute provides its trainees with the necessary soft skills required in order to become successful in the IT industry.

By guiding the employees of organizations such as Indian Air Force, Mindtree, Tech Mahindra, Cisco, HP, Juniper and many others with the necessary networking skill sets, the institute has been able to fill the void in the Networking domain. The institute hopes to continue its work in the IMS domain and help companies further develop the skill sets of the employees in the industry.
