HTU President Prof. Ismail Al-Hinti, commended Nutanix for its role in training HTU students on the latest software and technologies related to cloud computing and appreciated the company’s efforts in developing a specialized, exclusive course for HTU students entitled ‘Basics of Hybrid Cloud Computing’. The course, conducted remotely via Zoom video conference and delivered by a Nutanix certified trainer over a three day period, was attended by twelve students.
Al-Hinti stressed that this course will prepare students for Nutanix exams, which once completed would earn them the technical accredited certificate ‘NCA: Nutanix Certified Associate’. The certification is expected to expand their career opportunities in local and international markets.
Nutanix was founded with a bold vision: to make managing IT infrastructure so simple that it becomes invisible.
