Academic Preparedness

Northark recognizes the important connection between student success and academic preparedness. Students may be required to complete one or more of the following courses before enrolling in college level courses. Summer and/or intercession courses may be required to graduate within two semesters. Developmental course credits earned do not count towards degree completion requirements.

Network/Systems Administration


The Network/Systems Administration Certificate prepares students not only for careers involving data, voice and video communication, and network administration, but also to operate today’s computer hardware, communication networks, and operating system software. Several courses in the program utilize the Cisco Networking Academy Curriculum and will prepare students for the Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) Certification Examination. Preparation for additional certifications (Microsoft Certified Systems Associate [MCSA], Linux Professional Institute [LPI], etc.) is available through this curriculum. The certificate may be applied to the AAS in Information Technology - Network Technology Emphasis or may be used as one of the technical disciplines required for the AAS in General Technology. CIT 2001 - CIT Internship  is available for students interested in improving their technical skills and making contacts within the industry.
