In our current economic climate, MIE realized that the current market-related pricing for Cisco training in the country is sadly not financially accessible for most self-sponsoring individuals in their vocational pursuits, or for the SMMEs and medium to large enterprises that are on a tight training budget to train, enable or to transform capabilities to achieve or maintain Cisco certifications as part of their Cisco channel partner requirements. Our Cisco offering is “independent of channel”, meaning that MIE is not required to subscribe to high input costs as defined by the technology vendor. As a result, MIE is in a unique position to offer our ecosystem of Cisco channel partners and end customers with world-class Cisco training and certification solutions that are fit for any training budget and most importantly, affordably priced for our local South African market.
