Computer Networking, Certificate Locations

This certificate program prepares students to sit for the Cisco Certified Network Associates (CCNA) exam. Upon completion of this certificate program, students are encouraged, but not required, to take the CCNA certification exam at a CCNA testing center. Regardless of whether a student chooses to take the CCNA certification exam, when the student is ready to graduate (either from the certificate program for non-degree-seeking students, or from the ICS program for degree-seeking students), he/she should fill out the Graduation Application Form. That application provides notice to the Registrar to put “Certificate in Computer Networking” on the student’s transcript.
