CCNP is an acronym for Cisco Certified Network Professional. It indicates advanced or journeyman knowledge of networks. As a CCNP professional, you will be able to work with converged local and wide area networks with between 100 and 500 nodes including installation, configuration, operation, and troubleshooting. You are also able to manage the network's core routers and switchers as well as integrate various applications into the networks such as voice, wireless, and security.
To acquire a CCNP one must possess a CCNA certification first and then pass three or four more certifications which are Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) certification. A series of four exams which measures advanced knowledge of networks says it all.
Move up the IT ladder and obtain your Cisco Certified Network Professional certification by taking our CCNP training courses.
In order to gain this knowledge and these skills, our CCNP training course will help you prepare for the four exams needed to get the certification. Our CCNP certification training course will not only prepare you for the exam, but also emphasize real-world scenarios and techniques, so that you are totally ready for any on-the-job networking challenge.
We offer two delivery methods for our CCNP certification training course that can easily fits into anybody's schedule. A more effective way to prepare for this certification is to call and enroll for our instructor lead classes that allow you choose to learn during the week (Monday through Friday) or weekends (Saturdays & Sundays) or better yet request for our CBT on CCNP. You also have the option of tailoring your studies to your hectic schedules.
