The College of Engineering and Computer Science at Abu Dhabi University (ADU) announced the launch of a Cisco Networking Academy in cooperation with Cisco Systems, Inc., which will open its doors in February 2008.
It is a much welcomed addition to already existing programmes that are all well-suited to equip students with the necessary advanced networking skills needed for the 21st century Information Communication Technology (ICT) professionals.
The Cisco Networking Academy (Netacad) utilises a blended learning model, integrating face-to-face teaching with a challenging web-based curriculum, hands-on lab exercises and Internet-based assessments. Academy graduates will be prepared for networking and IT-related careers in the public and private sectors, as well as for higher education in engineering, computer science and related fields.
"We at the College of Engineering and Computer Science at ADU are very proud to include this new programme to our growing college offerings. With a comprehensive curriculum and onsite training programme developed by leading education and networking experts, the Cisco Networking Academy Programme demonstrates the highly successful alliance among Cisco Systems Inc., educators, governments, leading technology companies, and non-profit organisations," commented Dr. Aly Nazmy, Dean of the College of Engineering and Computer Science.
The Cisco Networking Academy Programme is a highly successful programme, which teaches students to design, build and maintain computer networks. The programme will prepare students for industry standard certifications. These certifications are viewed as a valid measure for assessing skills and assure an employer that the certified individual has practical qualifications. The certifications include: Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT), Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) and they are very valuable additions to any one's career portfolio.(WAM)
