Greetings,
Are you curious about the hardware inside of your computer? Do you want
to sharpen your troubleshooting and computer maintenance skills? Perhaps
you would like to build a computer or home network of your own.
The Cisco Academy for the Vision Impaired enables blind students to
enter the world of Information technology. We provide Diagram
descriptions, audio lab recordings, live online lectures by blind and
vision impaired instructors, and a community of students and instructors
to network with even after you have graduated our courses.
The academy is currently taking applications for the second semester of
2011. We will be offering IT Essentials, Discovery 1 and Exploration 1
starting the last week of July.
IT Essentials is an introduction to PC repair including: Hardware,
installing and maintaining an operating system, Troubleshooting,
portable devices, and customer service.
Discovery 1 is focused on home and small business networking. It is the
first of four courses that prepare students to take the CCNA certification.
Exploration is a more in depth look at networking, both theoretical and
practical for those students who wish to really get their hands into
building and designing networks.
Each class runs for a total of six months, with online lectures. The
classes are self-paced so you can finish them in a month, or take the
entire semester if desired. The cost for each course is 500 US dollars
however, scholarships are available to students who are paying out of
pocket that lower the price to $150. Your eligibility for a scholarship
will be assessed as part of the application process and payment plans
are available. Students are required to have good internet access skills
and be familiar with their screen reader of choice, or be willing to
teach themselves the necessary skills as we go along. Students should be
familiar with reading Adobe PDF documents, as they may be encountered
while doing research projects. We do not teach basic computer skills.
Course content is online, so a broadband internet connection is highly
recommended. Students should also have a working headset/microphone and
be willing to install Skype and Ventrilo, in order to attend lectures
and communicate with instructors. Applications will be accepted until
July 22, 2011.
For more information on any of our courses or to request an application,
