New CCNP, CCIP and CCDP Certification Training Courses Available from Global Knowledge
ROUTE, SWITCH, and TSHOOT courses prepare network engineers for new Cisco certification requirements and on-the-job tasks
Global Knowledge, current Cisco Global Learning Partner of the Year, today announced the availability of three new courses to support major changes to Cisco’s CCNP, CCIP, and CCDP certifications announced this week at Networkers at Cisco Live 2010. The exam and courseware changes reflect the knowledge and skills required for today’s networking professional, with specific focus on security and complex routing and switching, including support for branch offices, mobile workers, and delivery of voice services via the campus network.
"The new curriculum puts more emphasis on the actual job tasks of a professional network engineer,” said Eric Strause, Cisco Product Director at Global Knowledge. “As Cisco continues to evolve its products to meet the demand for specialized skills, we are committed to bringing training on these new requirements to our customers quickly. With our proven ability to rapidly launch a worldwide schedule and prime our instructors, we are ready to deliver now.”
In ROUTE - Implementing Cisco IP Routing v1.0, administrators of medium-to-large network sites will learn to use advanced routing to provide scalability for Cisco routers that are connected to LANs and WANs. Students will practice implementing techniques in hands-on labs, learning to dramatically increase the number of routers and sites instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations are added.
In SWITCH - Implementing Cisco Switched Networks v1.0, students will learn to plan, configure, and verify the implementation of complex enterprise switching solutions for campus environments using the Cisco Enterprise Campus Architecture.
TSHOOT - Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks v1.0 students will gain the skills needed to maintain complex networks and to diagnose and resolve network problems quickly and effectively. Students will learn troubleshooting and maintenance procedures, and they will reinforce the concepts by putting them to use in a controlled lab environment.
The new ROUTE and SWITCH courses replace the BSCI and BCMSN courses, respectively. TSHOOT is a new course made up of approximately 70% hands-on lab scenarios focusing on troubleshooting skills. ISCW and ONT will be withdrawn.
Global Knowledge enhances its Cisco training courses with custom, hands-on exercises and labs designed by professionals with real-world Cisco networking experience. Training courses for the new CCNP, CCIP, and CCDP certifications are available in Global Knowledge classrooms worldwide or via private on-site delivery.
