The CNM Cloud (hereinafter, the Cloud) is the information technology that supports CNM Digital. The Cloud is brought to the general public by the Friends Of CNM.


Purposes

The Cloud is designed to support people who:
  1. Haven't identified their vocations and/or profession yet. For these people, the Cloud can be helpful as a tool for organizing review seminars, practices and studies for them;
  2. Have identified their vocation and profession, but lack of employable credentials. For these people, the Cloud can be helpful as a tool for training, on-the-job training or certification of skills;
  3. Have identified their vocation and profession, as well as possessed all employable credentials, and are looking for a specific job. For these people, the Cloud can be helpful as a tool for job search skills building, market information, contacts, and marketing channels.

In addition, the Cloud can be useful:
  • Those graduates who decide to organize or promote their own enterprises,
  • Those enterprises that source, selects, hires, onboards, and/or develops their workforce using the Cloud.
