Course Overview

Demystifying Networking certification is a 4-week elective course that is an offering of the association between IIT Bombay, and NPTEL. This online course can be found on the provider platform Swayam. The course will actually help the participants with separate technologies of networking. Along with technologies, the candidates become aware of the concepts of networking as well. 

Demystifying Networking training acts as an eye-opener for non-major students which means who have almost nil knowledge of the core concepts of the networking syllabus. As the certificate course gets over the students may wish to pursue other different courses of networking so delve deep into more specific technologies. Candidates who want to enrol may do so for free. However, in the case of the certificates, the registered candidates may take the proctored test by paying a cost of Rs 1000 at any of Swayam’s designated test centres.
