JANET are trailing their new course ‘JANET Roaming Fundamentals’:

JANET Roaming Fundamentals

15th July

Manchester

This course will provide delegates with an understanding of how JANET Roaming operates at both basic technical and support level. This includes an overview of how to configure user equipment and solve some of the issues those users might face. The course also covers the configuration of wireless and wired clients for use on the JANET Roaming Service (eduroam), details of the logfile examination and methods of fault finding and reporting.

The full course outline is available at  http://www.ja.net/services/training/courses/roamingfundamentals.html

Cost

Places on course trials are free of charge to staff from JANET connected sites, but limited to one delegate per organisation.

Trial run

Before running a new course in full, JANET always run a full trial.  This trial helps to assess the course materials, practical activities and timetable.  When attending a trial delegates should be aware that;

• The course may not run as smoothly as a full course (by its very nature this is an opportunity to see how things work in practice)
• All delegates will be expected to provide constructive verbal feedback at the end of the course
• All delegates will be required to complete an anonymous but extensive feedback form
