Course Audience
This programme is ideal for holders of the CompTia A+ certification. As an alternative, a minimum of 9 months working within a PC administrative role, is a necessary pre-requisite. Successful candidates who achieve this qualification can progress onto the CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) course.

Course Overview
The CompTIA Network+ certification is the worldwide standard of competency in networking administration and support. Those holding Network+ certification demonstrate critical knowledge of media and topologies, protocols and standards, network implementation and network support. This certification is geared toward those with nine months field experience in network administration and support. The technology community identifies Network+ as the perfect entry point into a networking career. Server+ certified professionals provide planning, installation, configuration, and maintenance of servers, with knowledge of server-level hardware implementations, data storage subsystems, data recovery, and I/O subsystems. The demand for skilled network support professionals has grown significantly.
