Is this course right for me?

Unlike other vendor-specific networking certifications, ComptTIA Network+ prepares candidates to support networks on any platform. compTIA Network+ is the only certification that covers the specific skills that network professionals need. Other certifications are so broad, the don’t cover the hands-on skills and precise knowledge needed in today’s networking environments

After completing this course you should be able to:

  • Deploy and troubleshoot Ethernet networks.
  • Support IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
  • Configure and troubleshooting routers.
  • Support network services and applications.
  • Ensure network security and availability.
  • Deploy and troubleshooting wireless networks.
  • Support WAN links and remote access methods.
  • Support organizational procedures and site security controls.
  • Summarize cloud and datacentre architecture.
