PC Repair, Cisco’s CCNA Learn about PC Maintenance &
Computer Networking

practical experience through the
Networking Academy program can earn
Cisco career certifications
Jesse N says…….. “Sardis Secondary's computer science courses are a perfect example of self-learning done RIGHT. With proper guidance and mentoring from our teacher, my classmates and I were able to create our own schedules and work with our abilities and interests. The huge variety of courses kept things engaging, and there was always something new to find out. I can't recommend these courses enough for anyone interested in computer science, networking, or web development!” – Jesse Noordegraaf
Server (Microsoft’s MCTS)
Focus on a Microsoft technology
Windows?
Exchange server? SQL server?
Other server applications
MCTS certification is recognized world-wide
(Microsoft’s upgrading to MCSA)
Here at Sardis, we focus mainly on Active
Directory and basic Windows Server 2008
management
Same curriculum as BCIT!
Bradley T says……. These courses allowed me to further investigate what I want
to do. Normally, you wouldn’t get the chance to explore
the many different fields in computers until university, where
you have to pay thousands. Here at Sardis, though, you get
an idea of the different fields, and the work it takes to do
well in them. All the Cisco and Server courses are university
level, although we do them over a much longer time. For
example, BCIT will get you your A+, your CCNA, and two
Microsoft certifications all in one year. At Sardis, it will take
roughly two to three years to get all these certifications.
Another major advantage to taking these courses here is
that you might be able to skip the first year at BCIT, and get
advanced placement into year two right away.
Salary According to a 2007 survey of UBC college graduates entering the
job market, a computer science degree offers the second-highest
starting salary.
