Bermuda College will offer specialised IT skills training next year with the help of state-of-the-art virtual classroom technology.

The college has teamed up with Global Knowledge, a major provider of IT training, to give industry-accredited training in the 2020 spring semester.

Duranda Greene, the president of Bermuda College, said: “This partnership is another demonstration of delivering on our mission to provide the community with innovative programmes, training, support services and access to partnerships that lead to local and global success.

“We are thrilled that industry professionals seeking to expand their skill set, and Bermuda College information technology students, will be able to take advantage of the full suite of resources available through Global Knowledge’s extensive virtual library and online training.”

Technology students and industry professionals can choose several courses on project management, including the project management professional certification.

Todd Johnstone, the CEO of Global Knowledge, said: “Global Knowledge has the best instructors and the broadest and deepest portfolio of IT training programmes in the world.

“By using our industry-leading virtual classroom technology we can deliver that excellent experience anywhere.

“I am looking forward to seeing our students succeed and to developing our relationship with Bermuda College.”
