As I had mentioned in one of my recent postings, Cisco has just launched an exciting new series of certifications. The new entry level certifications are aimed at baseline administrator level staff.
We discussed Cisco CCNA Voice Certification in one of our recent posts.
The CCNA Wireless Certification is designed to meet the needs of the Wireless Engineer.
This aims to give you the required skill set for specialized job roles in wireless technologies such as administrator, engineer, and manager.
CCNA Wireless recognizes the critical importance of professionals supporting wireless LANS including Networking Associates/Administrators, Wireless Support Specialists and WLAN project managers.
The CCNA Wireless Certification also validates candidate’s skills in the configuration, implementation and support of wireless LANs, specifically those networks using Cisco equipment. Students completing the recommended Cisco training are provided with information and practice activities to prepare them for, configuring, monitoring and troubleshooting basic tasks of a Cisco WLAN in SMB and Enterprise networks. Employers will be able to validate their staff have the skills needed for basic wireless networking on a Cisco WLAN in SMB and enterprise networks after completing certification.
The prerequisite of the CCNA Wireless Certification Course is that you have to be a valid Cisco CCNA.
FYI, the exam number is:
640-721 IUWNE Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Networking Essentials
Recommended Training:
IUWNE class ( Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Networking Essentials)
To keep up with these new certifications and Cisco’s other wireless offerings, Unitek will be launching a Wireless Bootcamp in the new year. Stay tuned.
