About the Program

The National Workforce Center for Emerging Technologies formulated eight career pathways in Information Technology based on its research. These career pathways serve as a framework for identifying the knowledge bases through research initiatives, such as those of the Information Technology Association of America. The Network & Information Technology Administration program prepares students directly for two of the eight career paths-- Network Administration and Technical Support-- and indirectly for several others. Confidentiality, integrity and availability of information and networks are emphasized. Students are encouraged to gain experience in information technology as well as to seek industry and professional certification as part of their overall credentials.
