Tutor: Peter Franklin
Networks are used in one way or another by virtually every organisation, from simple use of internet services through internal file sharing to wide area networks exchanging data across continents. Therefore, it is essential that learners thinking of careers within the IT industry have a good understanding of the underlying principles of networking and how data travels around networks. This unit starts by exploring the different types of networks and the standards relating to network systems, including local and wide area networks. Networks can be either wired or wireless systems.
