5 Resource Guides with lists of supplemental study materials for each certification are available at 2 Revised: 3/28/17 Course Completion Requirements CCNA coursework is due within 90 days from the assignment date. The course hours listed at the top of the syllabus reflect the time it would take to click through the slides and do not account for taking notes or the end of module tests. You must complete all fourteen modules listed within Topic 1, and all ten modules listed in Topic 2. Successful completion of a module is marked after you review the lesson videos and score 80% or higher on the end of module tests.

6 At the beginning of a module, you will be asked to take a pre-test. Scoring 80% or higher on the pre-test signifies competence in the information that will be covered; you will therefore be waived from completing the module. A non-credit certificate of completion will be awarded for successful completion of the coursework. Industry Certification Requirements In order for the program to fund your CCNA certification exam you will need to meet the CCNA practice exam requirements. Your advisor or O2O program coordinator will provide you with access to the practice exam as well as completion instructions once you have finished the coursework.
