Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP)

Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Certification Exam Prep Course

Cisco Certified Network Professional(CCNP) is the next logical step in the Cisco line of certifications. This course is for someone who holds a CCNA or has the knowledge of a CCNA. This certification ensures individuals can install, plan, and troubleshoot small to large global networks.

Technical Institute of America is one of the most trusted names in Cisco training. This course has helped thousands of students pass their Cisco certification exams. This course prepares individuals by using a series of hands-on labs to ensure students understand the concepts and are able to actually configure real routers and switches.

All courses are live instructor-led. If you have a group of employees looking to get certified, call us for a customized quote. We offer great discounts and onsite training for groups of two or more.

What does the CCNP certification training course include?

• 100% hands-on training. This is not an on-line class. This is instructor led classroom course. The most hands-on training for CCNP.
• Updated equipment to match the current exam topics. Our rack of modern Cisco routers and switches allow our students to learn real world topics and configuration. Each student will get their own routers and switches to use in the course.
• We use actual routers and switches. Lots of schools only use simulators, not actual physical equipment.
• Our customized labs, prepares you for both the real world and the exams.
• FREE full functioning simulator. Practice the labs at home.
• All books and material included.
• Small classes.
• Practice questions.
• Cisco Certified Systems Instructors. Each instructor has over 15 years of routing and switching experience.
• Payment Plans Available.
• Unlimited free retakes for up to 1 year.
• Affordable cost. Some places charge more than double for less quality training. Stop paying outrageous fees.
