As the internet has become our primary source of information and communication, its future lies in the internet of things or IoT. IoT is a way of connecting electronic devices to the internet to exchange information. Thus, it allows hardware devices to connect to the internet. The Online Certificate course in IoT using Arduino and ESP8266 by NIELIT has been designed to understand and develop expertise in building IoT projects using Arduino microcontroller and ESP 8266.
Arduino is a platform that is slowly becoming popular across various disciplines and is used in embedded applications. Embedded systems are generally a combination of software and hardware that is synched together, such as cameras. Candidates also receive a course completion certificate at the end of the course, which will be enough to testify to their newly-earned skills.
Furthermore, the NIELIT Online Certificate course in IoT using Arduino and ESP 8266 allows students to learn and master programming skills from the beginner to the expert level. It will also help students learn the basics of robotics. Candidates must remember that the selection of the course is strictly on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Candidates can pay the course fee by online transaction, UPI payment or DD.
Candidates must remember that the course fee is non-refundable in any situation except if the course gets postponed or cancelled.
