- Description
-
Computer Networking covers one of the broadest fields of the Information Technology.The course covers the basic knoledge of a network, such as OSI Layer and TCP/IP model with all their undersections. The course covers deeply the communications between the protocols, and the configuration of different equipments. Their connections in the distance, troubleshooting and the security of the networking and PCs that are included in it, especially if they are exposed to the outside risk, and the protection of the cybernetic assaults
- Objectives
-
1. To teach the students the concepts of computer networking 2. To prepare the students for different certifications, such as Comptia Network+ 3. To prepare the students for the work market, at the moment they leave the school
