Success of the CCNAProgram
The Indiana University - Cisco Networking Academy Evaluation Study assesses the success of the CCNA program. The study showed that the CCNA program had an 'education effect' on high school students and an 'employment effect' on community college students in the United States. In addition, there was a powerful effect on student attitudes concerning the value of learning and the effort they are willing to expend in learning.
