Cisco’s NetAcad is a networking academy where students learn about networking. As our technology capabilities increase worldwide, so does the need for experts to connect our devices together. The Cisco NetAcad starts with an introduction to information technology for their first year, an introduction to networking for the second year, and an in-depth study of complex networking technology for their third year. Students join as either freshman or sophomores to complete the academy and be prepared for a Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician Certification, which is a worldwide recognized certification provided by Cisco. In addition, students may also take SAS Programming, which is a data-mining software used by governments, schools, and enterprise-level businesses.
