Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA)

The Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) program consists of four courses within the Computer and Internetworking Technologies (CIT) program. These courses are:

CIT 1121, Networking Basics, 3 credit hours
CIT 1122, Routers and Routing Basics, 3 credit hours
CIT 1123, Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing, 3 credit hours
CIT 1124, WAN Technologies, 3 credit hours

The above four courses, which must be taken in order, are equivalent to 280 hours of instruction and provide students with a basic foundation in networking. Students who successfully complete this portion of the program are eligible to complete the CCNA certification exam.

Students who have previous knowledge or experience gained in prior education or on-the-job training that is the equivalent of CIT 1121 can complete a Credit by Demonstrated Competence (CDC) test. Students interested in taking this exam should review the course content for this class. For more information, call Tony Chen, (630) 942-2537, or a faculty adviser.
