Hosting an Academic Day at your Institution
by Gergana Petrova 14 Oct '21

14 Oct '21

Dear all, I have a question for you. The RIPE NCC used to host in-person academic days on various topcs such as Internet 101, Routing, the RIPE Database, IPv6, RPKI, Internet Governance. With the current COVID restrictions we would like to move these online. Are any of your universities interested in such an online event? If so, can you support us by organising and spreading the word about the session and inviting students and we will deliver the content. Please let me know if you are interested. We can organise these relatively quickly. And if it does not work for you before summer, we can do it also in fall, regardless of the COVID situation. Looking forward to hearing from you.

We currently offer two exam certifications - on the RIPE Database and on IPv6.

We have also begun working on an IPv6 security exam that will be launched later this year. The exam questions are aligned with the demands of the job market, so that our certifications test actual skills and knowledge required in the workplace. Once you take the exam, you will be able to see your results instantly, and if you are successful, you will be able to receive and display your digital badge. This digital badge is verifiable and can be shared via social media, or added to your digital CV.
