Program Description: The relentless pace of technology and the critical dependence of todays global businesses on technology
have created two significant problems. For large businesses with dedicated IT staff, the problem is a lack of time for training IT
professionals on new and emerging technologies. For smaller companies, the problem is even more acute: they also need
cutting-edge technology, but cant afford a separate IT staff. This means they must either outsource their ITwhich can be a
competitive disadvantageor they rely on the computer guru, who is typically an individual with little to no formal IT training
but likes computers and can solve some computer problems when they arise.
The Network Systems degree at Salt Lake Community College prepares individuals with an appropriate blend of vendor-neutral
base knowledge and practical, hands-on labs to become the lone IT staff member in a company of 50-75 employees.
This is accomplished in the following core areas of the Network Systems program:

Data center

Security

Desktop management

Software management

Email

Storage

Operating systems

Unified communication

Physical infrastructure

Virtualization
Estimated Time to Completion: Time to completion is four semesters if students follow the suggested semester schedule.
