Cisco Networking Academy is a global
education program that teaches students how to design, build,
troubleshoot, and secure computer networks for increased access to
career and economic opportunities.
The Networking Academy provides online learning material, interactive tools, and
hands-on learning activities to help individuals prepare for
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and Networking
careers in virtually every type of industry.
Networking Academy delivers a comprehensive, 21st century learning
experience to help students develop the foundational ICT skills needed
to design, build, and manage networks, along with career skills such as
problem solving, collaboration, and critical thinking. Students complete
hands-on learning activities and network simulations to develop

professionals around the world.
-
CIS201
- Network
Fundamentals -
This is the
first of four courses designed to provide classroom and laboratory
experience in current and emerging networking technologies and to
help prepare for certification as a Cisco Certified Network
Associate (CCNA).This course introduces the architecture, structure,
functions, components, and models of the Internet and other computer
networks. It uses the OSI and TCP layered models to examine the
nature and roles of protocols and services at the application,
network, data link, and physical layers. The principles and
structure of IP addressing and fundamentals of Ethernet concepts,
media, and operations are introduced. Labs use a "virtual Internet
environment" consisting of servers, routers, and switches to allow
students to analyze real data within a controlled network
environment. Packet Tracer (PT) simulation software activities help
students analyze protocol and network operation along with
practicing network design and configuration. At the end of the
course, students build simple LAN topologies by applying basic
principles of cabling; performing basic configurations of network
devices, including routers and switches; and implementing IP
addressing schemes

Routing Protocols and Concepts -
The
second of four courses designed to provide classroom and laboratory
experience in current and emerging networking technology, and to
help prepare for certification as a Cisco Certified Network
Associate (CCNA). This course describes the architecture,
components, and operation of routers, and explains the principles of
routing and routed protocols. Students analyze, configure, verify,
and troubleshoot the primary routing protocols RIPv1, RIPv2, OSPF
and EIGRP. By the end of this course, students will be able to
recognize and correct common routing issues and problems. Each
chapter walks the student through a basic procedural lab, and then
presents basic configuration, implementation, and troubleshooting
labs. Packet Tracer (PT) virtual networking software activities
reinforce new concepts, and allow students to model and analyze
routing processes that may be difficult to visualize or understand.)

CIS203 -
LAN Switching
and Wireless-
The
third of four courses designed to provide classroom and laboratory
experience in current and emerging networking technology, and to
help prepare for certification as a Cisco Certified Network
Associate (CCNA). This course describes the architecture,
components, and operation of LAN switching and wireless networking. It
explains the principles of LAN switches, switching topologies,
switching protocols, wireless LAN devices, wireless LAN topologies,
and wireless security. Students get hands-on experience analyzing, configuring, verifying, and
troubleshooting wireless
networking devices; switches;
and switching protocols such as VLANS, VTP, STP
and VLAN tagging. By the end of this course
students will be able to recognize and correct common LAN switching
and wireless networking issues and problems.
Each
chapter walks the student through a basic procedural lab, and then
presents basic configuration, implementation, and troubleshooting
labs. Students
will reinforce new concepts
by accomplishing activities
using Packet Tracer (PT) virtual networking software that allows
students to model and analyze networking processes.

CIS204
- WAN
Technologies
- This is
the fourth of four courses designed to provide classroom and
laboratory experience in current and emerging networking technology
and help prepare for certification as a Cisco Certified Network
Associate (CCNA). The primary focus of this course is on accessing
wide area networks (WAN). The goal is to develop an understanding of
various WAN technologies to connect small to medium-sized business
networks. Topics covered during this course include: WAN converged
applications; Quality of Service (QoS); WAN connectivity using
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), Frame Relay protocol, and Broadband
Links (Cable, DSL, VPN); WAN security concepts including types of
threats, how to analyze network vulnerabilities, general methods for
mitigating common security threats and types of security appliances
and applications; Principles of traffic control and access control
lists (ACLs); Configuring Network Address Translation (NAT) and
Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP); IPv6 addressing concepts; and
using Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) Graphical User
Interface to configure router security and implement IP addressing
services; Throughout the course students learn how to detect,
troubleshoot, and correct common Enterprise network implementation
issues.

CCNP ROUTE -
CCNP ROUTE is
the fifth level of Cisco Networking Academy courses and one of three
courses leading to the Cisco Certified Networking Professional
designation. CCNP ROUTE enhances students' skills necessary for
implementing, monitoring, and maintaining routing services in an
enterprise network. Students will learn how to plan, configure, and
verify the implementation of complex enterprise LAN and WAN routing
solutions, using a range of routing protocols in IPv4 and IPv6
environments. Topics covered n the course are EIGRP (Enhanced
Interior Gateway Routing Protocol), Multi-area OSPF (Open Shortest
Path First) and BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) routing protocols;
Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) redistribution; secure routing
solutions to support branch offices and mobile workers; and an
introduction to IPv6, IPv6 addressing and routing, OSPFv3, IPv6
tunneling, and IPv4 to IPv6 translation. This is a lab-intensive
course providing students with hands-on experience by performing
labs and case studies using Cisco networking devices
