CISCO Networking Academy students will become the architects of the networked economy, enabling everyday experiences on the global human network. The CISCO Network Academy opens doors for industry-recognized certification and exciting yet rewarding careers and opportunities for economic advancement and local community development. The Cisco Networking Academy Program prepares you for careers in Information Technology. Students only need to be “Mind Wide Open” to the possibilities.
This career pathway prepares you for two different CISCO certification exams, CCENT® or CCNA®. After completing the Networking for Home and Small Businesses and Working at a Small-to-Medium Business or ISP courses, you can choose to complete the CCENT® (CISCO Certified Entry Network Technician) certification exam. CCENT® certifies that students have developed the practical skills required for entry-level networking support positions. In addition, this certification is designed to assess a student’s aptitude and competence for working with CISCO routers, switches, and CISCO IOSTM. You can learn skills today for a career tomorrow using the latest networking and computing technologies.
CCENT® is an optional first step toward earning the CISCO CCNA® network associate certification, which is the foundational certification for networking careers. If you complete all four CCNA Discovery courses you will be prepared for the industry-standard CCNA® certification exam.
