Fri, 20 Jul 2007 12:00:00 EDT New NetOps 300 Course http://iac.dtic.mil/iatac/training_NetOps300.html If your work is connected with Department of Defense (DoD) information technology, chances are you?ve been hearing a lot about NetOps. Most frequently mentioned in conjunction with the Global Information Grid (GIG) and often perceived solely as a warfighting resource, NetOps? reach actually extends throughout DoD to areas far removed from waging war. To provide a common understanding of NetOps functions, roles, responsibilities, and benefits, IATAC has developed a 5-module, introductory-level overview course, known as NetOps 100, and taken it on the road. Since July 2004 this training has been delivered to 1,656 students at 27 locations; including all 9 Combatant Commands, 11 DISA offices, and 3 conferences; with a participant satisfaction rating of over 90 percent.
