Its Cisco CCNP Certification For Network Engineers
Cisco CCNP certification for network engineers has been updated by Cisco.
- (1888PressRelease) January 04, 2011 - Cisco has updated its Cisco CCNP certification for network engineers through a comprehensive process involving customers and partners from around the globe. The revision focuses on the competencies that are needed to plan, implement, and troubleshoot routed and switched networks and is designed to be more predictive of job readiness.
The new certification process still involves a Routing and a Switching test. However the new certification introduces a troubleshooting exam where candidates are given real world scenarios and must logically deduce the issues to prove a practical application of routing and switching.
This seems like a good move on Cisco's part as the bulk of the common CCNP duties do involve generic day to day troubleshooting of LAN/WAN systems. More good news is that the current (read old) system involves taking 4 tests - Routing, Switching, Optimizing Routed Networks (QoS), and ISCW (which included a lot DSL and cable modem information most people simply memorized to get through the exam). With the exam process this is reduce to only three test that are more applicable to being a CCNP.
