Cisco CCNA Certification Training FAQs

All of our instructors are fully certified and have many years’ experience with Cisco products.

The CCNA exam (200-301) was released in February 2020 and is a 120-minute exam. As Cisco states, “This exam tests a candidate’s knowledge and skills related to network fundamentals, network access, IP connectivity, IP services, security fundamentals and automation and programmability.”

The CCNA is one of the most highly regarded entry-level IT certifications on the market today. Earning the CCNA proves to colleagues and employers that you are an educated networking professional that’s able to manage small to medium-sized networks in the real world.

CCNA certifications are valid for three years after their date of issue and can be renewed before their expiration date by passing the designated recertification exam(s). Contact us for more information on CCNA recertification.

There is no limit to the number of times one can take the exam(s). The only protocol Cisco has is that the candidate must wait five calendar days before retaking the exam. While the CCNA has a high first-time fail rate, TASC Management boot camp students have a passing rate of 93%!

Common job titles for CCNA professionals include: network engineer, system administrator, technical support engineer, computer systems analyst and many more.

Apart from developing good habits of self-study, it is recommended that students gain practical experience related to the fundamentals of routing and switching. Enrolling in a training boot camp like the one offered here is also a proven strategy for success!

CCNA holders can negotiate higher salaries for themselves and make between $39,195 to $118,830 annually — depending on location, job title, and experience.
