Hi there,
There is a regulars course called Internetworking, which I am thinking to replace AP Psychology with because I am already taking 4 AP classes (5 might be pushing it). “This course teaches networking through the Cisco Networking
Academy Program and prepares students for industry standard
certifications. Topics include LANs, the OSI model, addressing, and routing. Students who successfully complete the first two semesters of the program are eligible to earn Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) certification. Students who successfully complete two years (four semesters) of the program are eligible to
earn Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA™) certification. Students may continue this training at any Cisco Academy.”
Based on the I would like to know if this course is of any use for the real world, like will colleges like this or is it so much helpful for the engineering direction?
Thanks
