The Cisco Networking Academy has released a new CCNA level network security curriculum.

This course provides students with in-depth network security education and a comprehensive understanding of network security concepts. The course is designed to provide students with hands-on knowledge and skills, emphasizing practical experience needed for entry-level job roles in network security. This curriculum reflects the latest network security technologies and provides hands-on exercises. The hands-on exercises teach installation, troubleshooting and monitoring of network devices to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data and devices.

CCNA Security provides a next step for CCNA Discovery or CCNA Exploration students who want to expand their CCNA-level skill set to prepare for a career in network security. The class is designed to prepare faculty for CCNA Security certification (IINS 640-553 exam).

Food and refreshments will be provided.

CSSIA is pleased to offer continuing opportunities for faculty attending CSSIA's Faculty Development Workshops (FDW) to obtain graduate credit. Faculty can earn 3 graduate credits through the University of Illinois - Springfield by enrolling in an online course and doing some additional follow-up work (describing how you would integrate FDW knowledge into your programs). Tuition for this option is about $1200, and you would be responsible for paying your own tuition. Your institution also may have a tuition reimbursement program that would support this effort. The University of Illinois - Springfield has been offering graduate credit to community college faculty for events like this for 8 years with great success. For more information, go to https://edocs.uis.edu/tmims1/www/cssia/

PLEASE NOTE: Although there is no cost for the workshop, there will be a no-show fee of $500 billed directly to your institution for each registered individual who fails to cancel their registration a minimum of 5 business days prior to the first session of this course.
