Two day ‘GarrettCom Certified Network Associate’ Ethernet Training Course
This is Garrettcom’s main training course, which is run on roughly a quarterly basis. It aims to provide engineers with clear and concise coverage of introductory and intermediate networking topics. Following completion of the course, students should feel confident installing and configuring Industrial Ethernet switched networks. The GCNA is run at Garrettcom’s training facilities in Gosport, Hampshire.
NB Please note that we will have to be stricter with the syllabus as we are catering for students of varying levels of technical ability.
