Modern organizations depend on secure, well-managed networks—and network administrators are the professionals who make that possible. Network Administration in Practice: Managing Modern Networks equips you with the operational and managerial skills needed to run, secure, and document a network infrastructure in today’s hybrid IT environments.

Unlike purely technical or certification-prep courses, this program focuses on practical, day-to-day administration. You’ll learn how to build inventories, design policies, manage user access, monitor system health, enforce security controls, maintain compliance, and prepare audit evidence. Each module includes real-world examples from HealthBridge Clinic, showing how professional administrators keep critical systems resilient and compliant.

You’ll also gain hands-on experience through assignments that simulate real scenarios—such as creating a network inventory, implementing user lifecycle controls, and designing a security response plan. The final capstone project guides you through writing a complete Network Administration Handbook you can showcase to employers.

Key topics covered include:

• Establishing asset inventories and network documentation

• Designing access control, acceptable use, and change management policies

• Implementing monitoring dashboards and troubleshooting frameworks

• Applying security practices like firewalls, ACLs, and patch management

• Building compliance and audit-ready documentation aligned with ISO 27001 and HIPAA principles

• Adapting to emerging trends such as cloud networking, Zero Trust, and AI-driven automation

By the end of this course, you’ll have a structured understanding of how professional administrators manage modern networks—combining governance, security, and operational excellence. Whether you’re an aspiring administrator, an IT manager, or a compliance professional, this course gives you the frameworks, templates, and insights to manage networks with confidence and control.
