The Cisco Networking Academy Program empowers people through e-learning environments that enable them to learn anytime, anywhere, at their own pace, and with more targeted assessments and accountability than traditional classroom settings.

Formally launched in 1998 in Asia Pacific, the Cisco Networking Academy Program is an e-learning model that delivers Web-based educational content, online assessment, student performance tracking, and instructor training and support, as well as preparation for industry standard certification. With a curriculum developed by education and networking experts, the Networking Academy Program is offered by high schools, technical schools, colleges and universities, community-based organizations, and other educational programs worldwide.

The Networking Academy program provides educational institutions with leading-edge IT curricula and hands-on lab exercises to train a workforce that may attract highly desirable technology employers.
