Blended Learning

Combine work and study easily with GCU's rich e-learning environment.

Blended Learning is a combination of in-person instruction and remote training. A flexible option for CCNA and CCNP study without the committment to regular class times.

A combination of face-to-face and online learning support gives you greater flexibility, ideal for achieving professional certification.

Using Netlab, a remote lab appliance, blended learning provides IT training online. As a blended learning student, you access e-learning material and complete lab exercises using real networking devices and virtual desktops that are easy to use and manage.

Although there is some flexibility with regard to timescales, the following are recommended periods of study to complete each course.
