ITNET-131 Credits:3 Introduction to Networks (Cisco 1) This is the fi rst of four classes designed to provide students with classroom and laboratory experience in current and emerging networking technology that will empower them to enter employment and/ or further education and training in the computer networking fi eld. Instruction includes networking, networking terminology and protocols, network standards, LANS, WANS, OSI models, cabling, IP addressing, and network standards. Students who complete all four courses will be prepared to take the Cisco Certi fi ed Networking Associate (CCNA) exam as well as the Comp TIA Network+ exam at MATC’s VUE test center. ITNET-132 Credits:3 Routing and Switching Essentials (Cisco2) This is the second of four classes designed to provide students with classroom and laboratory experience in networking technology. Instruction includes Ethernet, TCP/IP, EIGRP, OSPF and the Cisco lOS. Emphasis is placed on router and switch con fi guration. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITNET-131 or have the equivalent skills prior to enrollment in this course. Prerequisite(s): Complete ITNET-131.

while problem solving. Emphasis is on algorithms, data structure and software engineering. Topics include header fi les, pointer data types, encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance and polymorphism as well as introduction to design patterns. Prerequisite(s): Complete ITDEV-115. ITDEV-198 Credits:1 Internship A cooperative training program involving actual work experience. Students obtain a position at an approved work station and work under the supervision of a teacher coordinator. Prerequisite(s): Complete INTRN-796. ITDEV-199 Credits:2 Integrated Project The Integrated Project course is a capstone project that re fl ects the student’s culminating experience in the program. In this course, students integrate their knowledge and skills in IT, re fl ect upon the work they have produced throughout their program, put their thoughts about their work into writing, demonstrate core ability skills, and display overall comprehension of their own discipline through the implementation, demonstration and documentation of the capstone project. Students evaluate their learning based on the program’s speci fi c learning outcomes. MATC strongly recommends that students take this course Network Communications (Network+) Network Communications provides an introduction to networking technologies and provides good background material for students interested in preparing for CompTIA’s broad-based, vendor-independent networking certi fi cation exam, Network+. This course covers a wide range of material about networking such as LAN components, OSI model and standards organizations, transmission media, topologies, protocols (such as TCP/IP), interconnecting devices, wide area networks and security. Through some hands-on exercises, demonstration and discussion, students will develop an understanding of what is involved in basic network design, network management, security and troubleshooting. ITNET-110 Credits:3 Managing Windows Desktop (client) Operating System This course provides preparation for the Microsoft 365 Certi fi ed: Modern Desktop Administrator Associate certi fi cation (Exams MD100 Windows 10 and MD-101 Managing Modern Desktops). Students are introduced to the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system through lectures, demonstrations, concurrently with ITDEV-I98. ITNET – IT Networking (Department 150) ITNET-101 Credits:3

ITNET-133

Credits:3

Scaling Networks (Cisco 3) This is the third of four courses designed to provide students with classroom and laboratory experience in current and emerging networking technology that will empower them to enter employment and/or further education and training in the computer networking fi eld.Atask analysis was used in the development of the content standards. The focus of this course continues with objectives from the CCNA exam. Subjects include VLSM, EIGRP, OSPF, Ethernet Switching, VLANs and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). Prerequisite(s): Complete ITNET-132. ITNET-154 Credits:3 Scripting for Network Administrators Successful Network Administrators use scripting languages to automate the con fi guration of clients, servers and cloud environments. Students will learn about the Python and PowerShell scripting languages. Python will be used to learn the fundamentals of variables, mathematical operators, logical operators, conditionals, loops, functions and error handling. PowerShell will be used to learn the administration and automation of Windows servers and clients. Topics include: scripting, pipelines, formatting, variables, remote PowerShell, data types, looping, comparison operators, and how to run/edit scripts. Students should complete ITNET-112, or have equivalent skills, prior to enrolling. ITNET-157 Credits:3 Virtualization Technologies This hands-on training course explores installation, con fi guration, and management of VMware vSphere, which consists of VMware ESXi/ESX and VMware vCenter Server. Students are introduced to virtualization and storage management concepts using VMware server virtualization products. This course is required to sit for the VMware Certi fi ed Professional (VCP) examination. Students should be concurrently enrolled in (or have completed) ITNET-111 and ITNET-134 prior to taking this course. ITNET-159 Credits:3 Cloud Infrastructure Services Cloud Infrastructure Services is an “open” course focused on virtualization and the technology concepts and principles required to build a cloud infrastructure. This vendor neutral class is applicable to all IT professionals whose responsibilities are expanding across all technology domains including servers, storage, networking, and applications.
