The program prepares students for many of the tasks they will face in the Information Technology field.   The focus of the curriculum is Computer Networking and Network+. The core of the class will be offered through the Cisco Systems Networking Academy.  This will give the students the opportunity to get a valuable industry certification known as a Cisco Certified Networking Associate. The curriculum also covers material such as computer hardware assembly and maintenance, operating systems including Microsoft Windows, network cabling, and media and network security. All of the material will be reinforced with hands-on experience in our classroom network. Students will also set up and support a computer lab used by all CTE classes. A partnership with SUNY Ulster allows for continued Cisco education in preparation for higher level certification.
