Join us for an interactive food workshop giving practical advice and support for the body’s transition during peri-menopause and menopause. We will discuss menopause-related nutrition, focus on foods rich in calcium and vitamin D to support bone health, and emphasise the food groups that ensure a high intake of vitamins, minerals, and fibre We will also look at how to include whole grains to promote heart health, which is particularly important as the risk of heart disease increases after menopause and discuss the benefits of soy and soy products, as they contain phytoestrogens, which may help balance hormones. We will have a cooking demonstration as part of the workshop, discuss meal planning and have a Q&A with our nutrition expert At the end of the cooking session we will eat together as a group This event includes sample recipes and a free meal kit to cook at home. £5 per ticket

Join us for our Friday Night Dine In - How to cook Scandinavian This hands on workshop led by our exprienced cookery chef, Nicola Becci will give you the skills and knowledge to cook 6 different recipes. We'll enhance the evening with some history and cultural knowledge including Scandinavian eating etiquette. The meals are based on a vegetarian diet which can be adapted at home and do contain allergens (soy and sesame). At the end of the cooking session we will eat together as a group This event includes full list of recipes for all meals and a free meal kit to cook at home. £5 per ticket

NETWORK AUTOMATION TRAINING COURSE DESCRIPTION This course concentrates on the technical side of tools and languages for network DevOps rather than the soft skills.

NETWORK MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGIES COURSE DESCRIPTION A comprehensive tour of the available network management technologies available for todays networks. The course starts with basic tools such as syslog along with Python network automation. SNMP is then covered with the *flow technologies and streaming telemetry. Configuration management with ansible, Python, NETCONF and RESTCONF is then studied. The final part of the course looks at SDN. Hands on sessions are used throughout to reinforce the theory rather than teach specific manufacturer equipment. Note that sections are available as individual courses. WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * Evaluate network management technologies. * Evaluate network management technologies. * Recognise the weaknesses of SNMP versus NETCONF and streaming telemetry. * Explain the role of NETCONF and RESTCONF. * Compare & contrast *flow and streaming telemetry. * Explain the role of SDN in network management. * Automate network configuration with ansible and Python. NETWORK MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGIES COURSE DETAILS * Who will benefit: Those wishing to manage networks.
