The widely respected IT certification programs available through Cisco Certifications bring valuable, measurable rewards to network professionals, their managers, and the organizations that employ them.

Cisco CCNA certification (Cisco Certified Network Associate) is a credential held by IT professionals who possess the ability to install, configure, troubleshoot and operate small to medium networks.

Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301 CCNA) Part 1

This CCNA 200-301 Part 1 course prepares you for the exam associated with the Cisco Certified Network Associate certification.  This course provides the knowledge and skills required to successfully install, operate, and troubleshoot a small to medium size enterprise branch network. This course covers topics such as networking, switch management, configuring IPv4 and IPv6 networks, LANs, VLANs, and more.

This course includes access to a hands-on Practice-Lab for 200-301, which will allow candidates to have training in the practical application of the course concepts without having to buy any additional software and will prepare them for success on the certification exam.

Prerequisite(s): Students should have keyboarding and computer skills, and be comfortable navigating the internet. 

Cisco Certified Network Associate (200-301 CCNA) Part 2

This CCNA 200-301 Part 2 course, in conjunction with Part 1, prepares you for the exam associated with the Cisco Certified Network Associate certification. This course introduces topics that will help you build an enterprise network so that devices connect and communicate with others. We discuss aspects of IPv4 access control lists (ACLs), security threats and vulnerabilities, IP services, network architecture, and network automation.
