• CIS201 - Network Basics - This is the first 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). Instruction includes safety, networking, network terminology and protocols, network standards, LANs, WANs, the OSI Model, cabling, cabling tools, routers, router programming, star topology, IP addressing, and network standards.
   
• CIS 202 - - Routers and Routing Basics - The second of four courses covering covers, Fundamentals in Router Configuration and Internetworking Structure and Theory, OSI Model, IP addressing, LAN and WAN topologies and Architecture, Routed and Routing WAN topologies, Router Modes, Router Components, Routing Protocols, Router Setup, Router Troubleshooting, Cisco IOS command and Configuration, Router Access Lists and TCP/IP.  Students will learn through theory and hands on applications (FT.)
   
• CIS203 - Switching Basics and Wireless-  This is 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.
   

• CIS205 - Advanced Routing - This is the fifth level of Cisco Networking Academy courses and one of four courses leading to the Cisco Certified Networking Professional designation.  Advanced Routing enhances skills necessary for implementing and supporting enterprise-class routing networks. Cisco Networking Academy students continue their experience with scalable network design, routing protocols, and route optimization. The course content covers implementing the EIGRP, OSPF (multi-area network topologies), IS-IS, and BGP routing protocols; an explanation of applications that utilize multicast technology and the benefit multicast provides to the user of the applications; and an overview of IPv6, IPv6 addressing and routing, OSPFv3, and IPv4 to IPv6 translation.
   

• CIS262 - Fundamentals of Wireless LANS - This introductory course focuses on the design, installation, operation, and troubleshooting of 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g Wireless LANs.  A comprehensive overview of wireless, technologies, devices, security, design, and best practices with a particular emphasis on real world applications and skills is covered.
