Cisco Introduces New Entry-Level Certification

On June 25, 2007, Cisco announced the addition of a new entry-level certification, Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician (CCENT) to the Career Certifications program. Cisco also introduced significant enhancements to the popular CCNA certification.

CCENT presents a new point of entry for those just beginning to build a career in networguide. As an optional stepping stone to CCNA, CCENT validates the skills required to successfully install and verify basic networks?a requirement for most entry-level network support positions. At the same time, Cisco?s foundational CCNA curricula has been revised to include a greater breadth of networguide topics and more focus on performance-based skills to differentiate Cisco-certified applicants in the IT job market. The CCNA curricula will be available worldwide on July 26, 2007 and exams will be released on August 1, 2007. Both curricula and exams will be initially released in English . Versions in simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish will also be made available in December 2007. Additional languages will be announced as translation plans are finalized.

The CCENT learning path includes:
A required exam: ICND1 640-822
A recommended course: Interconnecting Cisco Networguide Devices, Part 1

The CCNA learning path includes:
Required exams: ICND1 640-822 and ICND2 640-816, or CCNA 640-802 composite exam
Recommended courses: Interconnecting Cisco Networguide Devices, Part 1 and Interconnecting Cisco Networguide Devices, Part 2
