Inscriere

CCNA®v7

Compania Cisco Systems®, lider mondial in tehnologie si inovatie, prin reprezentanta sa din Romania, si Ministerul Educatiei si Cercetarii din Romania, au stabilit un parteneriat, convenind aderarea la programul CISCO Networking Academy®. La acest program au aderat peste 191 de tari, cu peste 24 milioane de cursanti(studenti) incepand cu anul 1997.

Programul Cisco Networking Academy se desfasoara in Romania in baza unui Protocol Strategic de Colaborare semnat intre Ministerul Educatiei si Cercetarii din Romania si Cisco Systems; el este menit sa aduca la zi si sa completeze cunostintele persoanelor interesate in domeniul retelelor de calculatoare, in general IT&C.

Fundatia pentru promovarea Tehnologiei Informatiei si Comunicatiei (ICT Foundation), Constanta, este inclusa in acest program, prezenta activa de peste 25 ani, perioada in care absolventii nostri s-au integrat intr-un mod remarcabil pe piata fortei de munca in IT&C, pe plan national si international. Programul este coordonat de Eugen PETAC, Conferentiar Universitar Dr., Cisco Instructor Excellence Award, Cisco Instructor Excellence Advanced,, Cisco Instructor Years of Service .

Beneficiile parteneriatului stabilit sunt:
- Studentii (cursantii) primesc instruire adecvata pentru incadrare in meserii din domeniul IT&C.
- Societatile comerciale beneficiaza de specialisti in tehnologiile informatiei si comunicatiilor, instruiti si atestati corespunzator.

La sfarsitul fiecarui curs studentii obtin un Certificat de absolvire a fiecarui semestru, eliberat de Cisco Systems si contrasemnat de ICT Foundation, Constanta, in care se indica volumul si tipul materialelor studiate, precum si competentele absolventului. Un curs se considera absolvit cu rezultate f.bune, la atingerea unui procentaj de minim 80%. Acest procentaj se obtine ca rezultat a bunei pregatiri a cursantului, ca efect al acumularii cunostiintelor teoretice si practice corespunzatoare, si in urma sustinerii cu succes a unor examene on-line pe serverul Cisco din USA, precum si a desfasurarii activitatilor practice de laborator. Examenele on-line sustinute si activitatile practice, desfasurate in laboratorul institutiei noastre, vizeaza fiecare capitol in parte, la care se adauga si evaluari prefinala si finala.

Fundatia pentru promovarea Tehnologiei Informatiei si Comunicatiei (ICT Foundation), Constanta, Romania, a fost distinsa in aprilie 2016 cu premiul "2015 Academy Curriculum Excellence Award", in semn de recunoastere a activitatii si contributiei la programul Cisco Networking Academy®. Premiul este acordat anual unei academii din fiecare regiune, pe baza unui proces riguros de selectie, ca rezultat al atingerii excelentei in procesul de predare in cadrul programului Cisco Networking Academy. Conf.univ.dr. Eugen Petac a primit premiul in numele Fundatiei pentru promovarea Tehnologiei Informatiei si Comunicatiei.

Cisco Systems®, lider mondial in Information and Communications Technology - ICT a elaborat programul de pregatire CCNA (Cisco Certified Networking Associate), unic prin continutul si structura sa.

CCNA® (Cisco Certified Networking Associate) reprezinta un curs teoretic si practic. Pregatirea este personalizata, pentru fiecare cursant in parte, in cadrul Fundatiei pentru promovarea Tehnologiei Informatiei si Comunicatiei (ICT Foundation), Constanta. Partea teoretica este in limba engleza si poate fi accesata on-line. Aceasta este prezentata si documentata ritmic in cadrul programului de pregatire, in procesul de instruire desfasurat sub conducerea unui cadru didactic. Partea practica se desfasoara in laboratorul Cisco Academy® al Fundatiei pentru promovarea Tehnologiei Informatiei si Comunicatiei, Constanta, dotat cu sisteme de calcul, software, simulatoare si echipament Cisco Systems® necesar. In timpul cursului, studentii (cursantii) isi insusesc fundamentele retelelor de calculatoare si a comunicatiilor de date, incepind de la end device-uri si intermediate device-uri, continuand cu retelele LAN (Local Area Network) de dimensiuni mici si medii, si pina la lucrul cu retelele WAN (Wide Area Network).

De la retelele din anii '80 care foloseau cablu coaxial subtire si care deserveau in cel mai bun caz o cladire, s-a ajuns in acest moment in situatia cand, practic, nu mai exista calculatoare, sisteme de calcul, sisteme inteligente in general, care nu sunt interconecate in retea si la Internet. Tehnologiile folosite in comunicatiile de date sunt tot mai sofisticate, rata de crestere a numarului de utilizatori a fost exponentiala in ultimul deceniu. Practic, toate domeniile de activitate folosesc retelele de calculatoare in diverse scopuri, in contextul implementarii si utilizarii pe scara larga a noilor tehnologii inteligente.

Pentru asigurarea unor servicii de comunicatii de date profesionale s-a dovedit ca nu sunt suficiente echipamente profesionale. Este nevoie si de personal calificat si cu un grad inalt de specializare. Dezvoltarea carierei absolventilor nostri este un deziderat la indeplinirea caruia contribuim printr-un nivel ridicat de calitate a actului didactic, corespunzator desfasurarii tuturor activitatilor, teoretice si practice, de la Fundatia pentru promovarea TI&C (ICT Foundation), Constanta.

Cisco® a creat noua versiune a programului CCNA, versiunea CCNA v7 (CCNA v7®, trei semestre) ca raspuns la solicitarile tuturor celor interesati: companii, personal de specialitate, instructori si studenti/cursanti, in contextul cerut de dezvoltarea actuala si imediat viitoare a societatii. Cursurile furnizeaza lectii relevante, cu aspecte practice, fiind insotite de studii de caz si materiale practice de laborator. Functie de realizarile si obiectivele lor educationale/academice, in contextul unei pregatiri de baza ce vizeaza un anumit nivel de formare profesionala, programele de pregatire CCNA se adreseaza unor niveluri diferite de studenti/cursanti, de la cei care cunosc notiunile de baza ale calculatorului, continuand cu cei cu aptitudini analitice, pasionati de dezvoltarea sistemelor software, inginerie, administrare de sistem/retea.

La sfarsitul fiecarui semestru al cursului CCNA (CCNA v7, 3 semestre) studentii obtin un Certificat de absolvire a fiecarui semestru, eliberat de Cisco Systems® si contrasemnat de ICT Foundation, Constanta, in care se indica volumul si tipul materialelor studiate, precum si competentele absolventului. Cursul se considera absolvit cu rezultate f.bune, la atingerea unui procentaj de minim 80%. Acest procentaj se obtine ca rezultat a bunei pregatiri a cursantului, ca efect al acumularii cunostiintelor teoretice si practice corespunzatoare, si in urma sustinerii cu succes a unor examene on-line pe serverul Cisco din USA, precum si a desfasurarii activitatilor practice de laborator. Examenele on-line sustinute si activitatile practice, desfasurate in laboratorul institutiei noastre, vizeaza fiecare capitol in parte, la care se adauga si evaluari prefinala si finala. Certificarea CCNA® (Cisco Certified Networking Associate), se obtine in urma acumularii unor cunostinte solide in domeniul retelelor de calculatoare si a comunicatiilor de date, in general. Absolventii programului CCNA beneficiaza de discount-uri de 58% pentru sustinerea acestei certificari.

Programul CCNA v7, organizat pe trei semestre, este recomandat celor care isi doresc acumularea de cunostinte aprofundate in domeniul retelelor de calculatoare, in general al interconsctarii sistemelor inteligente. Acest curs poate fi urmat de studentii/ absolventii de la facultatile de informatica si de profil tehnic, precum si de inginerii de sistem/ administratorii de retea din cadrul diferitelor organizatii. In acelasi timp, elevii si absolventii de liceu pasionati de acest domeniu, pot obtine rezultate f. bune in procesul de pregatire.
