The world of networking is a highly competitive arena that continues to grow in complexity as technology evolves. With this growth, the demand for highly trained networking experts increases daily. Keeping current on the latest technology is a challenge even for the most experienced professionals. To remain competitive and succeed as you pursue your career, continued learning and ongoing knowledge acquisition is essential for extending skills and strengthening your professional options.
Cisco Career Certifications is a program that addresses the growing demand worldwide for more trained computer networking professionals. Building upon the highly successful Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) program-the industry"s most respected networking certification vehicle, Cisco Career Certifications enables you to be certified at various technical proficiency levels: Associate, Professional, and Expert. These individual certifications contribute to the achievement of Cisco"s Partner Certifications-Gold, Silver, Premier and Global Support.
The recommended courses for each career certification track is taught by Cisco Learning Partners, who are authorized on a country-by-country basis and must undergo rigorous training and testing to meet our stringent requirements. When you are trained by one of our Cisco Learning Partners, you`ll receive the high-quality instruction you`d expect from Cisco Systems-the industry`s networking innovator. Equally important, product information will come straight to you from Cisco and its partners, rather than from a secondhand, non-certified source. This ensures you`ll receive the most up-to-date knowledge, reflecting the latest trends in the networking industry.
All Cisco Career Certifications require you to pass a supervised test. While candidates are not required to gain Associate or Professional status before attempting to become a CCIE, these certificates are designed to act as stepping stones that confirm your relative expertise. As such, Cisco Career Certifications helps develop and increase the number of highly trained individuals while establishing viable career paths in today`s competitive networking industry.
Pages on our website outline the guidelines associated with each career certification track, along with recommended Cisco courses designed to provide you with the knowledge you need to pass the exam for each specific certification. After successfully passing the test, you`ll receive a graduation letter, a certificate from Cisco, and the right to use your designated certification on your business card.
