Can I put Cisco Networking Academy on my resume?

I'm just curious because I was reading a forum the other day regarding networking. Some people were saying they graduated from the Cisco Networking Academy. I'm actually taking the last class now, is that something I can put on my resume? It is part of my degree program at school so I didn't even consider it because they are required courses for me.

    Kinda depends on your resume and if its relevant to the jobs you are looking for. Junior/Network Admin?
    If you're after a networking job that deals primarily with Cisco equipment, I don't think it could hurt, especially if you haven't completed your degree yet.
    Generally though, a Cisco certification will be more relevant and a BS degree will probably be worth more on a resume.

    If you don't have any practical experience to show then it might be helpful. If you already have your CCNA and some work experience I'd probably leave it off.
    An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made.

    I did when I was still looking for a job. Going through a few month long class gives you way more CLI time than going to a week long bootcamp.
