Network Technicians are Integral to the IT Industry
You can purchase the most expensive laptop that comes with all of the bells and whistles. But if you don’t have an internet connection, you’ll be very limited in what you can do with that laptop!
Network technicians are responsible for implementing, maintaining, troubleshooting and repairing computer and network systems. They also set up internet connections as well as establish different types of networks and connect them for clients.
Once you become a certified network technician, you become a valuable member of the IT field.
On any given day, network techs perform a wide range of tasks. If they work in an office setting, they will spend a good chunk of their time troubleshooting hardware and software issues and perform scheduled updates.
Another very important task they perform is to secure the network against cyber-attacks. This means doing things like installing antivirus software and ensuring it is updated regularly. They will also be responsible for educating employees and management on best practices.
Network technicians are invaluable to any business and it is easy to see why these professional s are always in high demand!
