>>>http://cisco.netacad.net, the main page of the Cisco Networking Academies, shows the number of students currently enrolled. It seems this information is updated every few days.

>>>Right now, we just passed half a million students (worldwide).

>>Kinda like MacDonald's millions sold < s >. I assume that the number is cumulative.

>Update: I hadn't noticed the "definitions" section before. It states that "participating students" (which went down a little in the meantime, to 485,000) include:
>

Students that have completed a class within the last five months
>

Students currently taking a class that is in session
>

Students enrolled in a class that starts in the future

Wow! This means that there are an awful lot of network specialists out there!!!
