Cisco CCNA

Course Overview

Communications' (or 'Comms') engineers design, configure and maintain the connections between computers on a network. Comms engineers configure hardware devices called routers and switches in order that computers or networks can talk to each other.

Typical Roles

Typical roles can be Support Engineer or Communications Engineer.

Certification

The CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) is the first of 3 high level qualifications offered by Cisco which is designed to provide the necessary skills and experience to implement, maintain and troubleshoot small to medium size routed networks.

The CCNA consists of a single exam, which tests your theoretical knowledge such as network concepts and routing and switching, and also includes live 'simulator' sessions to test your ability to configure Cisco hardware devices.

This is a mandatory step in the journey to further Cisco qualifications such as CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional) or the final CCIE (Cisco Certified Internet Engineer).
