Cert in Computer/Information Technology Administration and Management

Organizations that run their own servers need administrators, and this certificate readies students for roles as administrators of enterprise systems. It brings together networking, operating systems, servers, and cloud services in one sequence. The twenty-four credits cover introductory networking and routing, an introduction to Linux and Unix, desktop operating systems for Windows, and server fundamentals. Later classes address cloud server services and administration, cloud platforms and web services, and system administration for Linux. Together they expose learners to the mixed environments found in many workplaces. The credential works for people entering information technology as well as workers who handle systems informally and want recognized training. It also sits alongside other network and security certificates in the same department, so students can stack them over time. The catalog displays each requirement by code and credit value, and the computer and information technology program page offers more background.
