CISCO Internetworking

You’re the wizard behind the scenes. Powering up the organization. Making vital connections. Keeping trouble at bay.

When you’re a network technician, your knowledge and know-how are essential. You’re the expert everyone can rely on – no matter where the technology takes us.

Earn the digital badge that makes your resume stand out

Land that entry-level spot you’ve been eyeing. Get on the fast track to advancement in your current job. The Cisco Internetworking certificate program at OCC is your foundation for a great career.

It’s fast. Four classes, two terms, and no prerequisites.

It’s flexible. Start Fall or Winter term. Stack up your certifications. Take your credits along as you earn your associate or bachelor's degree.

It’s fun. (We promise.) Simulation-based training and hands-on labs. Puzzle-solving, wayfinding, and troubleshooting. Cluttering up your classmates’ desktops with random files. (That last one isn’t on the exam; it’s just a bonus.)
