Abstract

Nowadays, smart devices have grown exponentially, so they have become a necessity rather than a luxury, therefore staying connected to the Internet has facilitated people to explore national and international news, make payments for services public, virtual shopping, scheduling medical appointments, among others. Now all this demand increases every day at excessive levels and adding the robust applications that are currently being developed and launched on the market. Regarding this, it is known that currently, the internet service providers of the municipality of Soledad Atlantico do not have the physical infrastructure to maintain the availability of the service. This is where the project design of the Wi-Fi-Offloading solution to extend the coverage and the transmission of data from the cellular network, through the wireless network in the Muvdi park of the Municipality of Soledad Atlantico, is carried out with the aim of providing a solution and alternative so that the internet connection service remains available without import the data network to which you have access. The research methodology used for the development of the project is descriptive. The research design is qualitative, transactional, and non experimental. At this moment, it is in a descriptive stage, carrying out tests, and then moving on to the applied stage.

Abstract

By 1997, Cisco Systems, a company already consolidated in the technology and communications market, saw the need to train personnel who had the skills to configure, manage, install and support all its products in general at all levels, from design to the implementation of solutions. In Colombia, more precisely in the city of Barranquilla, the ITSA University Institution in the early 2000s saw an excellent opportunity to ally with the University created by Cisco, called Cisco Networking Academy, to train professionals in the Caribbean region capable of face the new challenges that technology in networks is generating day by day, becoming in the first Institution of higher education in the region to provide this type of training with international certification and endorsement. From then on, the local Cisco academy has strengthened and significantly impacted local society, generating valued and skilled labor in the labor market of the city and the region. The purpose of this work is to measure this impact, focused on the Cisco, CCNA, and CCNP flagship courses between 2015 and 2019, verifying how ITSA, through the Cisco Academy, has transformed lives. The research methodology is descriptive, exploratory, and documentary
