150-150 CCNA 1: Intro to Networks 3 Program student This is the first of three courses that are aligned to the CCNA Certification Exam. It introduces the architecture, structure, functions, components, and models of the Internet and other computer networks. The principles and structure of IP addressing and the fundamentals of Ethernet concepts, media, and operations are introduced to provide a foundation for the following CCNA courses. By the end of this course, learners will be able to build simple local area networks (LAN), perform basic configurations for routers and switches, and implement IP addressing schemes.

150-153 CCNA 3:Netwkg/Security/Automat 3 150-151 The final course aligned to the CCNA Certification Exam describes the architectures and considerations related to designing, securing, operating, and troubleshooting enterprise networks. This course covers wide area network (WAN) technologies, quality of service (QoS) mechanisms, network security, and introduces the concepts of software-defined networking, virtualization, and automation that support the digitalization of networks. Learners gain skills to configure and troubleshoot enterprise networks and learn to identify and protect against cybersecurity threats. Learners are also introduced to network management tools and learn key concepts of software-defined networking (SDN) including controller-based architectures and how application programming interfaces (APIs) enable network automation. By the end of this course learners will be able to configure, troubleshoot, and secure enterprise network devices. Learners who successfully complete this course are ready to prepare to take the CCNA Certification Exam.
