Cisco certifications

Networking is the bedrock of the IT industry, and Cisco certification is the gold standard for validating networking skills and knowledge. IT professionals who specialize in networking will more than likely work in a Cisco environment at some point.

Cisco certification training levels & paths

There are four Cisco certification levels: Entry, Associate, Professional, and Expert. Cisco certification training is designed for networking professionals who are looking to increase their value and assume higher levels of responsibility. Anyone starting down the Cisco certification path can begin with entry-level and associate-level certifications and then specialize in a professional-level certification (CCNP). The CCIE develops networking professionals into experts, and sits at the pinnacle of the Cisco certification program.
