Intro to Cisco CCNA: Implementing and Administering Cisco Solutions Webinar

CED Solutions instructors have been teaching for more than 16 years and are award winners in their areas of expertise.

All our Cisco instructors have received a Cisco Distinguished Instructor Award or Cisco Instructor Excellence Award.

The new CCNA program has been designed to prepare you for today's associate-level job roles in IT technologies. CCNA now includes security and automation and programmability. The program has one certification that covers a broad range of fundamentals for IT careers, with one exam and one training course to help you prepare.

Newly retooled for the latest technologies and job roles, the CCNA training course and exam give you the foundation you need to take your career in any direction. CCNA certification covers a breadth of topics, including:

• Network fundamentals
• Network access
• IP connectivity
• IP services
• Security fundamentals
• Automation and programmability

Prerequisites

There are no formal prerequisites for CCNA certification, but you should have an understanding of the exam topics before taking the exam.

CCNA candidates often also have:

• One or more years of experience implementing and administering Cisco solutions
• Knowledge of basic IP addressing
• A good understanding of network fundamentals
