NHTI CISCO Academy

Cisco Certified Network Associate Training Program

A Cisco Certified Network Associate works with networking equipment such as routers and switches to build Local Area Networks (LANs) and Wide Area Networks (WANs). These Networks allow people to share information, access the Internet and work collaboratively from across the room or on opposite sides of the world.

In NHTI’s CCNA you will be building LANs and WANs with Cisco routers and switches and connecting various end user devices including WIN XP clients, Win 2003 servers, printers, web servers and others. You will gain knowledge of networking protocols such as TCP/IP and WAN standards such as Frame Relay and ISDN.

If your goal is to learn how to build and maintain small LANs and WANs or if you are currently working in the field and want to obtain the CCNA certification to further your skills and career then this track is for you.
