One of the biggest problems on this day is the lack of specialists who are able to master new technologies and use their achievements. Such technologies include Cisco network equipment, which is a world leader in the field of Internet and network technologies. The Cisco network Academy program allows you to successfully master such network devices. The Academy has a complete training material and provides students with the necessary knowledge in the field of information technology. The program includes materials that can be obtained via the Internet, electronic systems for evaluating the acquired knowledge, practical laboratory classes, as well as preparatory courses for obtaining professional-level certificates. This distance learning program is a distance learning program, i.e. students of the Academy have the opportunity to study in any country of the world, that is, in any Academy where the student wants to choose a course. In August 2008, the 2nd local Academy was opened at the al-Farabi Kazakh national University. One of them is the "Network Academy of the Department of Informatics of KazNU" (KazNU Infomatics Department Networking Academy). The Academy's courses are constantly updated, regularly checked, students ' knowledge is evaluated and they interact with them. On the basis of this network Academy at the Department of computer science there is a circle "computer networks". Students of the Department study in the circle. One of the goals of the circle is to train students and young professionals who want to study on the network, Supplement their knowledge and continue their work in the future. The circle works fully with the Cisco Academy program. Students enrolled in the Academy program have the opportunity to acquire practical skills during laboratory classes, prepare professional certification, contact graduates of other academies, as well as make a great career, open the way to the future.
