Shout out to Gabby Rumfelt and Paul Guest of North Tedch, and Jackson McClellan and Hayden Werner of South Tech, who were celebrated at a ceremony at the World Wide Technology Global Headquarters by their peers and former CISCO Networking instructors for completing the Configuration Technician Apprenticeship. The program allows senior students to develop their skills as configuration technicians, expand their career readiness, and earn while doing so. The program begins in the fall. Students must work 20 hours per week after school, have completed CISCO Networking Academy 1, and be recommended by their instructor. Andert says the students have shown incredible grit and determination to accomplish this at the same time they were still completing high school. Learn more: https://buff.ly/3Wa7PoY
