Network Technology Class - ACI - 05-13-2024

Hello! I'm currently enrolled in the network technology class through TESU and I'm in my second week. However, I am unfamiliar with many of the concepts that the assignments ask me to write about. It seems like a prerequisite to understand these things because these concepts aren't being taught in class. I haven't been able to access the TestOut software yet so I asked the professor about that. Does the main source of teaching come from the TestOut software? Thanks

They must have changed that course.

It used to be that you learned everything from the book Intro to Networking Basics, 2nd edition, by Ciccarelli.

You will need access to TestOut Network Pro, which is the source of all of the course information.

"When you click the TestOut Course link for the first time, you will need to enter your product code. Use the instructions found in the same section of the course to purchase access. Once you have made your payment and entered the product code, you will have access through the same TestOut Course link."

Looks like they are going to make you pay for it. Tell us how much it cost.

The TestOut Network Pro software they require students to have is $129.00. There doesn't seem to be a way around it.
