FAITH Colleges is now a certified MIKROTIK ACADEMY, the first and only higher education institution recognized as such in the entire province of Batangas.
This landmark partnership with the College of Computing and Information Technology (CCIT) integrates the MikroTIK Certified Network Associate (MTCNA) course in the current curriculum of the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) program.
This certification strengthens the IT curriculum of the Institution’s BSIT program that specializes in Network Management. It equips FAITH Colleges’ IT students with knowledge in MikroTIK RouterOs, which will allow them to earn their very own MikroTIK Certification.
“With the demand for certified IT professionals on the rise, our students will be certified even before their graduation.” Dean Lacorte further adds, “Since the MikroTIK certification is known worldwide, a brighter future awaits our graduates” explains Dean Alice Lacorte.
The certification programs were attended by Professors Michael M. Casabuena and Rommuelle Jester L. Manongsong from the College of Computing and Information Technology (CCIT) of FAITH Colleges. Aside from becoming a Certified MikroTIK Associates, both Professors are also recognized as MikroTIK Academy Trainers. They passed the two (2) Certification Programs as MikroTIK Certified Network Associate (MTCNA) and MikroTIK Certified Security Engineer (MTCSE). This means FAITH Colleges can now be benefited with MikroTIK Routers and other Networking Laboratory equipment for free.
