This certificate program is designed primarily as a focused concentration for students earning a degree in computer science, computer technology, information technology, or computer information systems, but may also be obtained independent of these degrees. This certificate, built around a common set of core competencies and providing specialization through a minimum number of additional courses, is also an excellent complement to a degree in business administration or communication and media arts. Graduates of this certificate program are able to maintain the operation of a local area network (LAN), administer user accounts, implement and support LAN resources, monitor and track LAN activity, design network configuration modifications, maintain LAN documentation, optimize LAN performance, resolve LAN hardware and software issues, and integrate a LAN into business processes for enhanced operations.
