The FHS beginning network course is designed to teach students the fundamental components of networks and network design. Semester one covers a variety of networking concepts including network topologies, standards, addressing, media and management considerations. The students are given hands on opportunities to string and terminate wire and mount boxes in a wall. Semester two reviews semester one curriculum and proceeds into router setup and management. The students learn how to successfully configure a router. They complete a series of 10 labs which teach them how to enable a router to route IP traffic across a wide area network

Following Microsoft's AATP training curriculum, students will learn the basics of setting up Microsoft's NT Server software to manage a network of multi-platform work stations/computers. Students will learn in a self contained lab, and then move "to help" manage our school district's student network.

This training will help prepare the students to pass the MCP certification exams (70-073 & 70-067) with additional training in dedicated Microsoft Certification

Following the A+ curriculum, this module will train students in the basics of maintaining in good order the equipment that is attached to our school network.

Students will work with equipment that use different platforms (Mac, PC, Unix)

Besides the technical training, students will also learn effective protocols for customer service delivery with the district community serving as our prime customer base.
