The Cisco Networking Academy proves to be a viable project in the area of education of networking professionals. All educational materials are presented in English and students are required to study in English, too. Our experience shows it is valuable for the students to have some localized curriculum handy. An official translation is extremely expensive. On the other hand, many local academies provide some form of translation of curricula to their students. We decided to develop an environment based on Web 2.0 technologies to provide community tools for collaborative translation of curricula and their distribution to the Academy students. The paper describes basic ideas of the developed solution and presents some results in the translation of curricula of CCNA courses.
