Many organisations are also looking to provide their own services across the Internet or internal Intranets.

The course develops from issues involved in connecting to the Internet such as TCP/IP and DNS, to the Internet services, email, the World Wide Web and browser clients, web page design, security issues and an overview of electronic commerce.
