1 Partnering with Georgia for America s Networked Future A sustained economic recovery requires a skilled and well-trained workforce. Graduates who have acquired problem-solving and critical-thinking skills, in addition to specific job-related expertise, will be a crucial human resource for the United States in the years ahead. As organizations become increasingly reliant on knowledge workers and intelligent networks, Cisco Networking Academy is helping Georgia prepare for sustainable, high-paying jobs by teaching the skills that employers need. A Leader in Education Innovation Cisco Networking Academy is a transformative, public-private education initiative, preparing today s students for 21st century opportunities via curricula that build knowledge and skills in information communications technology (ICT). After successfully completing the coursework, Networking Academy students are prepared to earn ICT certifications that are valued by employers in diverse industries and public-sector organizations. Courses also prepare students to pursue further education or apply these skills in their own businesses. Networking Academy is recognized worldwide as a leader in education innovation and e-learning. The curricula include instructor-led course content, online learning and skills assessments, hands-on labs, and innovative simulation technology. Core courses include IT Essentials, Cisco CCNA Discovery, CCNA Exploration, and CCNA Security. Students may then enroll in the more advanced Cisco CCNP courses. Cisco Networking Academy has enrolled more than 3 million students since its inception in Each year, Networking Academy delivers 14 courses to more than 810,000 students, in over 9,600 academies worldwide. Networking Academy partners with a broad range of education, government, and nongovernment organizations, offering courses in high schools, community colleges, universities, and nontraditional settings. Cisco is the largest networking company in the world, delivering innovations that transform how people work, live, play, and learn. As of October 31, 2009, approximately 155,571 students were enrolled in 2,425 academies in the United States and Canada. Rapid growth over the past decade has demonstrated the program s versatility in geographic reach, diversity of students, number and variety of partners, breadth and relevance of curriculum, and ability to keep pace with technical and pedagogical advances. Course content is consistent, providing students everywhere with the same knowledge and skill development. The 21st Century Workforce Strengthening instruction for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is a prerequisite to developing a well-trained, 21st century workforce. The Obama administration has announced an education initiative aimed at increasing STEM literacy and critical thinking, improving the quality of STEM teaching, and expanding STEM education and career opportunities with a focus on under-represented groups like women and minorities.

2 Educators have placed considerable emphasis on the science and math components of the STEM curricula. But technology and engineering are equally vital. In particular, ICT investments are expected to play a major role in generating stable, high-paying jobs and boosting the nation s GDP. In addition, a workforce that is well-schooled in ICT and engineering can help spur innovation across many industries, which in turn opens up additional business opportunities to fuel productivity and economic growth. Reaffirming and strengthening America's role as the world's engine of scientific discovery and technological innovation is essential to meeting the challenges of this century. That's why I am committed to making the improvement of STEM education over the next decade a national priority. President Barack Obama, 11/23/09 Networking Academy puts an emphasis on understanding what skills will be required in future job markets. Networking knowledge will be especially important in critical areas such as green technologies, healthcare, smart energy grids, and the push toward universal broadband deployment. Networking Academy utilizes an education infrastructure that ensures curricula will evolve to meet STEM and future learning requirements. State-of-the-Art Learning Environment The instructional approach at Networking Academy encourages student engagement, enhancing the student s ability to synthesize learning and apply it in other contexts. Four skill areas identified by education researchers as critical for 21st century workers have been integrated into the course content: Problem solving and decision making: Students practice and test their knowledge by configuring and troubleshooting networks using hands-on labs and simulation software. Creative and critical thinking: Students understand the how and why of networking by combining hands-on learning with conceptual and analytical exercises. Collaboration, communication, and negotiation: Students acquire teamwork and career-ready skills as they perform lab exercises and engage in business scenarios. Intellectual curiosity and information handling: Coursework helps students develop the ability to find, select, structure, and evaluate information. Real-world case studies give students the opportunity to develop cutting-edge problem-solving techniques. Spotlight on Community Colleges A unique feature of these institutions is their linkage with business and industry, and hence their integration into economic development. Community colleges are working to align their curricula, certifications, and degrees with new ICT jobs through Networking Academy implementations. In the United States, more than 50% of all community colleges offer Networking Academy courses. According to researchers, students today are faced with high tuition costs, a weak economy, and increased competition for admission to four-year colleges. They are more likely than at any other point in history to attend community college. As a result, community colleges have experienced a spike in enrollment. In July 2009, the Obama administration proposed a $12 billion plan called the American Graduation Initiative, aimed at supporting community colleges by funding job training and retraining programs.

3 As an example of how these institutions are responding to the challenge, Moraine Valley Community College in the Chicago area is leading the Center for System Security and Information Assurance (CSSIA), a consortium of seven academic institutions in five states, dedicated to developing and evaluating cyber-security curricula, and offering training programs to community college and university faculty, secondary school faculty, and students across the region. A Cisco Networking Academy training center was established at Moraine in 1998, and academy courses are an integral part of the curricula. CSSIA has developed nine undergraduate courses, nine graduate courses, and a variety of workshops that can be used as models by other institutions.

In 2005, while stationed at Fort Gordon, Georgia, he enrolled in Cisco Networking Academy. Fort Gordon provides advanced training for military personnel in signal occupational specialties, training more soldiers in its Signal Corps than any other branch training center of the U.S. Army. After completing the Cisco CCNA course and certification, Freeman enjoyed his experience at the Networking Academy so much he decided to teach the program to his fellow soldiers. I know that I m making an impact on these soldier s lives. It s critical to have the technical knowledge in the field where battles are fought. Our soldiers are ensuring that our tactical networks are secure. I know that I m making an impact on these soldier s lives, says Freeman.

6 They re the front-line communicators that provide command and control for our networks and for commanders on the battlefield. Prior to being stationed at Fort Gordon, Freeman served in Operation Desert Storm in Iraq, and then in Bosnia, East Timor and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Throughout his military career, Freeman worked in several positions as a network management technician and communications engineer. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, he taught soldiers how to put together data packages consisting of routers, switches, firewalls, and multiplexers. It was at this time that Freeman realized how quickly technology was changing and he wanted to keep up with the latest technological advances. I was primarily dealing with line-of-site and satellite transport, multiplexing, and tactical switching. I had always focused on the wide area network (WAN) as a network management technician, but Internet Protocol (IP) was the area in which I was not really proficient. After taking the CCNA courses, I decided I really liked the IP side of the WAN. It seemed as if networking and network services were transforming to IP-based technology and I did not want to become irrelevant. The Cisco program gave me the tools and skills to stay current. Within five months of enrolling in the Cisco course, Freeman had completed, graduated, and received his Cisco CCNA certification. Shortly afterward, he became one of only two Cisco instructors running the program at Fort Gordon responsible for training Warrant Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers in Cisco CCNA. In addition, he trains Department of the Army civilians and contractors in Cisco CCNP courses. Freeman plans to continue his Cisco education and earn both his CCNP and Cisco CCIE certifications. In October 2008, he will receive his bachelor s degree in business. He will begin coursework toward his master s degree in business technology beginning in January Learn More For additional information, impact stories, and Cisco Networking Academy contacts in your area, visit our website: Copyright Cisco Systems, Inc.
