“It was a really positive experience for me. I learned a lot and gained a lot of confidence in myself by completing the program.”

-Vitaliy, Brooklyn Networks Graduate
ARE YOU READY TO START A CAREER IN CABLING?

Looking for a career that’s both challenging and rewarding? We can help you connect to your future in low voltage cabling. Our graduates spend most of their day out in the field, sometimes on construction or renovation sites. They stand on ladders, pull cable through walls, and test and troubleshoot connectivity. 

We invite you to review our eligibility requirements and learn more about this dynamic field in an information session.

  • Take a reading and math test at the information session, and score at or above the 8th grade level. Learn more about testing here.
  • Able to attend class Monday-Friday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM in-person on the NYC College of Technology campus
