The real @CiscoNetAcad heroes can be found @suitcasemedia ...

One of the wonders of working with the Cisco Networking Academy programme for too many years, far too indecent to mention. Is the diverse souls who want to reach underserved communities. Today I had the privilege of meeting Suitcase Media. A community based company whose sole purpose is to teach the homeless computing skills.

They are starting on the journey of becoming a CCNA academy, they already have the tools and two souls who already have their CCNA certifications. As we quietly boot them into instructor mode, I think that today the UK has gained an invaluable member of the academy programme.

Cisco Nerd heaven, kit good enough to teach CCNA and CCNP.

Ignore the chap in the middle (its me), left is Jimmy, right is Zeb. Shen wasn't available today.
As a Cisco ASC, the Open University is pleased to be able to support unique organisations like Suitcase media.
