how to get CCNA ? A) Networking Academy - (1) network academy student. 4 semester - each semester 9 weeks (min), 18 weeks (max) -(2) via Instructor Training. 22 days B) Boot Camp - 5 days -RM5000/= per person - on the 5th day, a similar CCNA trial exam is given - 99.7% passing rate C) Self study - 1 yr working experience in networking area - some dealing with Cisco product (configuration etc) - buy some Cisco Press book and study 9/18/2018

Difference between Boot Camp & Network Academy? What do U want ? Paper or knowledge !!!!! Ask yourself 22 days training compress to 5 day what kind of quality R U talking about Student concern :- duration of the course Boss concern :- 22 day $$salary versus 5 day $$salary Boot Camp don’t have Multimedia Course Don’t have so many Exams. 9/18/2018

how to get CCAI ? (1) via Instructor Training. 22 days - sit for CCNA exam (Prometric or VUE) & pass.!!! (2) via Fast Track - already have CCNA - attend 3 days Orientation and 3 day Fast Track (skill base exam). If fail then go for 22 days training teach for 1 semester at least must sit for CCNA exam (every 3 years) to maintain your CCAI 9/18/2018

My Hope (expectation) on You Teach MMU student - CCNA (dean decision on who to teach) Try to integrate some part of CCNA into FIT/ FOE curriculum. Go through normal faculty procedure. E.g all FIT student by default will take CCNA Sem 1. FOE ???? Extra qualification in case you resign after Master/PHD Do some final year project on networking do some networking research Network Consultancy sponsor curriculum. Java, Cabling, Unix Offer it to MMU student and integrate it to our curriculum later etc ( tell me if you want ) 9/18/2018
