Educational Goals are important for every student around the world. These goals determinate which course of action we should take in our student live. However, My case is a bit complicated. I cannot be full time student since my personal life interferes with school hours. Right now, I cannot graduate from LGCC because some of the classes are not available in the schedule I can take them.
I have been searching for schools, which provide me a flexible schedule, but it is too difficult. The online Universities are not the best option for me because I’m the student, which learn with the interaction with professor, and students.
My major is New Media Technology. Finish the program at LGCC is almost impossible for the reasons before exposed. I decided to develop my Portfolio and start my own business as a Freelancer.

- 100% hands on training. This is not an online class. This is instructor led classroom course. The most hands on training in New York City.
- Updated equipment to match the current exam topics. Their racks of modern Cisco routers and switches allow the students to learn real world topics and configuration. Each student will get his or her own routers and switches to use in the course.
- No simulations. They use actual routers and switches. Lots of schools use simulators, not actual equipment. The students will not learn real world scenarios on a simulator.
- Their customize labs, prepares students for both the real world and the exams.
- Unlimited remote access to their lab for up to 3 months after the course ends. Practice the labs from home.
- All books and material included.
- Small classes.
- Practice questions ($160 value).
- Cisco Certified Systems Instructors. Each instructor has over 15 years of routing and switching experience.
- Payment Plans Available.
- Unlimited free retakes for up to 1 year.
- Affordable cost.
Some places charge more than double for less quality training according to them.
NEW YORK BUSINESS INSTITUTE.
This institute is my second option. NYBI's CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) certification course covers how to install, configure, troubleshoot and operate simple-routed LAN, routed WAN and switched LAN and LAN networks on Cisco Routers.
The course including lectures, discussions, exercises and labs will give you the hands-on experience you need to configure and maintain Cisco routers in the real world. Upon completion of the course, the
