Feature Program:
Network Security

Network Security is necessary to keep vital computer networks in tip-top shape for all private businesses and governmental organizations.

Network security professionals enhance the security of Fortune-500 companies and top secret government computer documents and networks, among other tasks. The security of these organizations is vital, and network security jobs are expected to continually be on the rise.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment in computer services will grow by 54.6 percent and add more than one-third of all new jobs in professional, scientific, and technical services; such growth will be driven by “increasing reliance of businesses on information technology…and network security.”

With The Chubb Institute diploma in network security, you open a myriad of employment doors. Where you want to work, when you want to work, and how much you make will be increasingly decided by YOU.

Your job in network security will be more stable than other occupations, according to the BLS, and with future growth, comes future demand on the occupation, meaning higher pay and better fringe benefits for your network security job.



Using Flash in Your Graphic Design Job
Macromedia's Flash software is used by more than a million designers and developers to create dynamic communications materials such as web sites, training and educational materials, and user interfaces. In your graphic design job, you may benefit from incorporating Flash into your designs.

Next time you're browsing the internet, notice how much interactive content you see. In particular, look for applications that integrate video with graphics, text, and audio. It's likely that the presentation you're viewing was developed using Flash.

But first, get the basics about Flash. Below is a list of Flash tools and what function they aid in performing:
  • Flash MX 2004 is the software used by designers and developers to create content.
  • Flash Player 7 is a video client for Flash content and applications.
  • Flash MX Professional 2004 is a tool used for creating internet applications and video-driven content.

Practical Applications of Flash

Flash is used in graphic design, video production, and web development jobs, among others, to create marketing productions, educational and training materials, and user interfaces. Museums, for example, may feature a CD-ROM that uses Flash to feature information about its collections and exhibits. A company may develop a DVD using Flash to create a more interactive and interesting employee training tool.

Flash and Web Design

In addition, Flash has become an increasingly common tool used in web design jobs. The appeal of using flash in web design seems to be rooted in the immersive environment it creates for users. Video clips, animation, and interactive text and graphics, combine to create a visual experience that draws in the viewer, providing more compelling content than what can be achieved only in HTML.

Find out if your job performance in graphic design can be enhanced by using Flash. Talk to your work colleagues and friends about Flash and find out if a training course in Flash will equip you with the skills needed to advance your career.
