CIS 201 — Cisco Academy - Introduction to Networking
This is the first of four courses designed to provide knowledge, experience and skills in current and emerging networking technology. This course is also designed to help students prepare for the professional certification as a CISCO Certified Network Associate (CCNA). This course introduces you to fundamental networking concepts and technologies. In this course, you will learn both the practical and conceptual skills that build the foundation for understanding basic networking. Students will: examine human versus network communication and see the parallels between them; be introduced to the two major models used to plan and implement networks: OSI and TCP/IP; learn about network devices and network addressing schemes, and discover the types of media used to carry data across the network. This course maps to the current CISCO Certified Networking Associate curriculum version. (CSU)
