Is it right for me?

Individuals who possess a general networking background, have some experience with Cisco IOS, and are seeking CCNA® certification should consider this class as the quickest way to meet the requirements of the CCNA exam.

Prior to attending CCNA, you should be very familiar with networking topics such as TCP/IP, IP configuration, peer-to-peer networking, subnetting, building a routing table, and other network protocols, standards, and architecture. If you're new to networking and to Cisco IOS, consider taking the INTRO and ICND classes. We strongly encourage career changers and people new to internetworking to gain the foundation knowledge needed by taking our Network+ Boot Camp.
