What are Ciscos key education initiatives?
Our largest initiative is the Cisco Networking Academy Program. Launched in 1997, the Networking Academy program has grown to more than 10,000 Academies worldwide. The global network includes Academies in all 50 U.S. states and more than 150 countries, with a curriculum taught in nine languages. The Academies have more than 400,000 active students in high schools, colleges and universities, technical schools, community-based organizations, and other educational programs. Academy graduates are prepared for networking and IT-related careers in the public and private sectors, as well as for higher education in engineering, computer science, and related fields.
