Cisco is the industry leader in networking products. Most of your governement and large corporate networks utilize cisco networking products. They also offer several certifications such as CCNA, CCNP and so on.

Many high schools and local community colleges have partnered with Cisco and are now offering Cisco's certification programs. The most common Cisco certification is the CCNA, but there are many more that are offered by Cisco.

You can access their web site for specific details regarding each of the certification tracks.

Certification is a good way to partner with a vendor and learn how to support their products.

Don't forget Cisco also has their proprietary VOIP solutions with CUCM, Messaging, and management.
