Cisco Announces New Rich Media Certification
1/10/2006 -- Cisco Systems today announced it is adding the new Rich Media Communications Specialist to its Cisco Qualified Specialist certification offerings in IP Communications.

"To achieve the many benefits of voice conferencing, streaming video and other digital interactive media, organizations need network professionals with the right mix of skills," said Don Field, director of certifications at Cisco. "The Rich Media Communications Specialist certification validates a robust set of skills in implementing, operating, configuring and troubleshooting rich media communications in an IP network."
