Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Mobility Services (IUWMS) v2.0 is an instructor-led course presented by Cisco training partners to their end-user customers. This five-day course is designed to help students prepare for the CCNP-Wireless certification, a professional level certification specializing in the wireless field. The IUWMS course is a component of the CCNP-Wireless curriculum. The IUWMS course is designed to provide professionals with information to prepare them to integrate mobility services into the network; tune and troubleshoot the WLAN and implement indoor enterprise mesh networks. The IUWMS reinforces the instruction by providing students with hand-on labs to ensure students thoroughly understand how to implement mobility services in the wireless network.
