(CompTIA N+)
"Whether you take courses on campus or online, Atlantis University has the Global-Industry Certification Program that can be the perfect compliment to your technical education and career".
The CompTIA Network+ program taught at Atlantis University prepares students to acquire the CompTIA Network+ certification. An established hallmark in the industry, this international, vendor-neutral certification confirms proficiency in managing, maintaining, troubleshooting, installing and configuring basic network infrastructure.
Since its introduction in 1999, more than 235,000 people have become CompTIA Network+ certified. Microsoft includes CompTIA Network+ in their Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA) program, and other corporations such as Novell, Cisco and HP also recognize CompTIA Network+ as part of their certification tracks.
The newest version of the CompTIA Network+ certification exam was launched in early 2009. IT professionals who are encouraged or required by their employers to remain current on their certifications have two options: They can take the new version of the exam, or they can take the CompTIA Network+ bridge exam, which covers the new objectives. The test, exam code BR0-002, is a 60-minute, 50-question test. A passing score is 500 on a scale of 100-900.

“I always look for CompTIA Network+ on a job applicant's resume because it tells me they're motivated to learn, and it shows they have the ambition and drive to prove their knowledge"
