The St. Mary’s College of Tagum is now recognized as one of the Mikrotik Academies in the Philippines. Being part of the Mikrotik Academy means that SMCTI can offer Mikrotik Certified Network Associate (MTCNA) course to interested students.

Mikrotīkls SIA, known internationally as Mikrotik, is a computer networking equipment manufacturing company based in Latvia. Mikrotik also produces software for data network management purposes (MikroTik.com).

Aside from offering MTCNA, SMCTI will also be a beneficiary of 20 units of RB941 networking laboratory equipment for training purposes for free. The training can also be integrated into Computer Science and Senior High School ICT students, so that they may have the chance to earn their Mikrotik certification.
