Find a local Academy. Visit the NetAcad website and use the "Find a Location" tool. You will likely find a community college, technical school, or high school near you. Step 2: Enroll in a class. You pay the institution (usually a few hundred dollars, far less than a university credit hour). Step 3: Gain access to the NetAcad portal. This unlocks the e-books, chapter quizzes, Packet Tracer activities, and exams. Step 4: The lab. You will work on real Cisco gear (routers, switches, rack servers) in a physical lab, or virtually via Packet Tracer. Step 5: Final exam. Upon passing the course final, you receive a "Letter of Completion" (which helps on a resume), but to get the official industry certification (CCNA/CyberOps), you must pay a separate fee to take the proctored exam at a Pearson VUE center.
