Cisco Systems, Inc.

Cisco’s stated purpose is to Power an Inclusive Future for All. Achieving a goal focused on better outcomes for the people who work in and with our company is a complicated effort that involves many fronts.

As we continue to celebrate Cisco Networking Academy’s 25 years of impact, we recognize that our success is made possible through our unmatched ecosystem of partners in government, academic institutions, and non-profits around the world.

An inclusive future is one in which everyone has a path to economic opportunity. To do this, we must provide people with equitable access to the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to support themselves and their families toward long-term resilience and economic security.
