Information Technology Institute at ACC
Why ITI?
The Information Technology Institute (ITI) is a new three-semester program that launched Fall 2018. Classes are scheduled in afternoon blocks, at one campus. Fall and Spring semesters consist of two 8-week sessions. Each session has two back-to-back classes. The 9-week Summer session consists of a Capstone class and an optional internship. All of your classes are set for the whole program.
Reach your goals quicker
With a set schedule and guaranteed classes, you’ll be able to earn your certificate in Network Administration in one year. After you earn your certificate, you can go on to earn your AAS degree in as little as two more semesters.
Ideal ITI student
This program is best for students who:
Want to Finish Faster
Commit to this three semester program and graduate sooner. Then get your AAS degree.
Prefer Classrooms
Study in classrooms, instead of in an online program such as the APT program
Like Peer Support
Get the support of your classmates who will move through the program with you
ITI makes it easy
Earn your Networking Certificate in one year
Imagine taking all of your courses on one campus, with a consistent timetable you can schedule your life around. Students attend the Riverside Campus for three consecutive semesters beginning in either the Fall or Spring terms, earning their Network Administrator certificate in one year. Courses meet Monday through Thursday from approximately noon to 4:30 and your courses will never be canceled.
