Just curious if there are any other students who have to do CCNA along side their programming degree, also my college is using Borland 5.5. Am I right it's a waste of tuition fees for an outdated programme? At home I use codeblocks with mingW, it's better in my opinion, whilst learning C and C+.
Any other CCNA cisco students here?

Yep I did it 15 years ago and it was part of the program. I see it hasn’t changed then. I had to do Java Programming and other lessons where full CCNA class.m
I did a FD for 2 years.

Oh right. I'm still in my first semester but term two. I think term three were doing java. Managed to finish my sprint last week ready for one final go over and debugging.
I'm lagging on the ccna. Typical as I want to do network security, on my potato laptop I struggle to use ccna and packet tracer. Constantly sync issued when I take my online exams. I think the online ccna modules are 10% weight of my first year so not so bothered. I don't want to be burnt out before my second year.
The foundation degree I'm doing is called. Computing, Networking & Software Development.
I love playing in the lab with the switches and routers. Cisco is awesome, but I wish i had gone for comp tia a+ mcse and mcsa now tho. I don't mind programming I'm 33 and have been a chef for 18 years so I find it hard to remember code, I can make 1000s of dishes tho and know all seasonal foods haha. Thanks for the reply.
Kind regards.

Wow you on for a challenge taking this course mind it’s not as easy as you think.
When it come to the uni modules about security for some very odd reason we had to pick a topic out of a hat, stand up and talk about that topic every week. I hated that day every single week as it appeared we where doing things not related to the course but it was all fun.
I had to make a bank in Java so you could deposit, Withdraw and apply for a loan etc with an admin panel I cried myself to sleep as I was the last to get how to code. I wasn’t there for the coding I was there for the security.
My course was networking and security FD.
