The Cisco Networking Academy Program is a comprehensive e-learning program
that provides students with the Internet technology skills essential
in a global economy. The Networking Academy delivers web-based content,
online assessment, student performance tracking, hands-on labs, instructor
training and support, and preparation for industry standard certifications.
Launched in October 1997 with 64 educational institutions in seven states,
the Networking Academy has spread to more than 150 countries. Since its
inception, over 1.6 Million students have enrolled at more than 10,000
Academies located in high schools, technical schools, colleges, universities,
and community-based organizations. Interested educational institutions
are given the designation of Networking Academy
at the level of training that they will be providing
in the program. There are currently three possible
tiers of training. Industry experts at Cisco Systems
train the Instructor Trainers at the Cisco Academy
Training Centers (CATCs), the CATC Instructors
train Regional Academy Instructors and the Regional
Academy Instructors train the Local Academy Instructors
who then educate students. Utilizing this three-tier
training model helps to provide instructors the
training they need in close proximity to where
they are located. Educational institutions may
play a role at one or more of these training levels. Cisco's partners from business, government
and community organizations form an ecosystem to
deliver the range of services and support needed
to grow tomorrow's global workforce. Initially
created to prepare students for the Cisco Certified
Network Associate (CCNA) and Cisco Certified Network
Professional (CCNP) degrees, the Academy curriculum
has expanded with ecosystem-partner sponsored courses.
Optional courses include: IT Essentials: PC Hardware
and Software and IT Essentials: Network Operating
Systems; and Panduit Network Infrastructure Essentials
sponsored by Panduit Corporation. The Internet enables anytime, anywhere
learning for all students, regardless of location,
socio-economic status, gender, or race. With the
United Nations Development Program, the United
States Agency for International Development, and
the International Telecommunication Union, Cisco
has made the Academy program available to students
in Least Developed Countries to help them build
their country's economies. The Networking Academy program continually
raises the bar on e-learning and educational processes.
Through community feedback and electronic assessment,
the Academy program adapts curriculum to improve
outcomes and student achievement. The Academy infrastructure
is designed to deliver a rich, interactive, and
personalized curriculum to students around the
world. The Internet has the power to change the
way people learn, work, and play, and the Cisco
Networking Academy Program is in the forefront
of this transformation
