Report

Foreword

The Higher National Diploma (HND) Networking and Cloud Computing curriculum is designed to be used
by training institutions to produce manpower to boost the practice of Networking and Cloud Computing in
Nigeria.

There is therefore the need to produce professional practitioners with good ethics and prospects for career
progression, through the acquisition of desirable knowledge and skills. This necessitated the production of
this national curriculum.
It is my belief that this curriculum and course specifications, which is the minimum required to produce
technologists with sound knowledge and skills in Networking and Cloud Computing, if properly implemented
with the required resources along with qualified candidates being admitted into the programme, will lead to
the production of competent and skilled technologists.

I sincerely appreciate all those who made the development of this curriculum possible. The invaluable
contributions of all the members of the committee and resource persons during the pre-critique and national
critique workshops are appreciated.

I hope that the curriculum would be properly implemented so as to produce the required Work Force of our dream.

Prof. Idris M. Bugaje

Executive Secretary
