Blended Distance Learning Option
Cisco has recently announced the forthcoming BDL option of the Cisco Networking Academy Program. BDL allows for the eLearning and taught components of the training to be balanced according to the needs of the class and its students, so that time and cost can also be reduced.
The Cisco Networking Academy of the University of Indianapolis, Athens Campus has been granted permission by Cisco to be the first to apply the BDL option in Greece starting from its experimental stage. Since the beginning of 2006 the University of Indianapolis, Athens Campus is applying the BDL option. This has reduced training time from 8 to 4 months and the cost by 40%.
