This course is the first step towards gaining the skills needed to design, build and maintain computer networks. It is designed for those who have no previous computer networking experience, including school-leavers, graduates and mature entrants re-training for a second career. Providing a basic foundation in computer networking, successful completion of this course means you are eligible for the industry-standard qualification - Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) certification. In order to become fully trained in computer networking, the Cisco Certified Networking Professional (CCNP) examinations are the final step. Cisco Systems is considered to be one of the worldwide leaders in networking for the internet. Innovation in communications technology is constantly expanding the scope of networking. With a predicted shortage of over eighty thousand network skilled employees in the UK alone, and six hundred thousand in Europe, networking qualifications are at a premium. Today's corporations depend on their information networks for mission-critical operations, and are looking for highly trained networking professionals to keep them up and running - there are currently more Cisco networking jobs available than professionals to fill them. London Metropolitan University was established as a "Cisco Regional Academy" in 1998, and is one of the few places in the UK that has been certified by Cisco Systems to provide CCNA/ CCNP training in one of the most advanced Cisco training laboratories in the UK.

CCNA Course structure
The Cisco CCNA Exploration curriculum provides a comprehensive overview of networking, from fundamentals to advanced applications and services. This course emphasises theoretical concepts and practical application, while providing opportunities for students to gain the skills and hands-on experience needed to design, install, operate, and maintain networks in small-to-medium businesses, as well as enterprise and service provider environments.
CCNA Exploration offers in-depth theory, challenging labs, and a detailed overview of protocol operations. It is designed for students with advanced problem-solving and analytical skills, such as degree candidates in engineering, maths, or science, or for working professionals who would like to advance their careers or gain certification. CCNA Exploration was designed to be integrated into technology curricula or continuing education programs at postsecondary institutions such as technical schools, colleges, and universities.
CCNA Security will teach students to design and implement security solutions that will reduce the risk of revenue loss and vulnerability. As with existing courses offered by the Cisco Networking Academy, the focus of the course will combine hands-on experience, instructor-led and e-learning for students.
