CCNA

The networking industry has virtually boomed in recent years. The networking industry is highly competitive, and evolving technology.

The rapid growth of the networking industry has created new job opportunities for qualified people. There simply aren’t enough skilled networking people to meet the demand.

 Even the most experienced professionals must keep current with the latest technology in order to provide the skills that the industry demands.

Microsoft and Novell (Linux), has created the certification process to give administrators a set of skills and to equip prospective employers with a way to measure skills or match certain criteria.

 Cisco started its certification program many years ago, offering only the designation Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE).

 In early 1998, Cisco recognized the need for intermediate certifications, and several new programs were created.

 The CCNA program was created to provide a solid introduction to the Cisco Internetwork  Operating System (IOS) and Cisco hardware.  Cisco certification programs can help networking professionals succeed as they pursue their careers.
