Networking Fundamentals Plus
Osiris Organization believes certification in Information Technology should not just be about getting hired – it should be about getting hired and also have the skills required to successfully maintain long-term employment with opportunities to rise through the ranks.
We know IT certifications alone don’t always lead to successful employment outcomes – especially for students from underrepresented communities – who may lack the sort of work-readiness and soft skills employers require.
Information Technology + Soft Skills = Networking Fundamental Plus
Osiris Organization has developed a specialized curriculum that supplements in-demand IT industry networking coursework and credentials, with the softer skills employers are looking for.
Students completing Networking Fundamentals Plus are better prepared to successfully obtain and more importantly, maintain living wage jobs in the field of technology.
Students not only gain in-demand IT industry networking knowledge, they learn the softer skills employers look for – like critical thinking, problem-solving, how to communicate effectively, and how to be a capable team player. Guest IT professionals supplement instructor-led training.
Students enrolled in Networking Fundamentals Plus received:
- One-on-one mentoring

For adults just starting out, between jobs, or simply looking to strengthen their skills to secure better employment opportunities, Networking Fundamentals Plus better prepares learners to successfully secure employment and build their careers.
