Video training course to prepare you for the CCNP ENCOR exam. Please take this course before you embark upon the ENCOR course or after you have taken the Cisco CCNA exam. It will lay a strong foundation for you. The CCNP exams now qualify you to take the CCIE practical labs so the difficulty level has increased. This course will give you a gentle head-start for your advanced studies.
Cisco CCNP Exam Pass

Chris Connell
Chris chose us to help him on his Cisco CCNP certification journey. He passed his exams on his first attempt and is now a CCNP engineer. He is just one of many hundreds of students we have trained over the years towards their Cisco CCNP exam.
The Cisco CCNP is a high-level IT certification which allows you to work in senior network support and design positions. You can plan, configure and support advanced network services and protocols or consider becoming a freelance IT consultant.
This course is perfect if you are CCNA level but not quite ready for the arduous CCNP certification. Lay a strong foundation in routing, switching and network security as well as design principles. Take the hands-on labs using our live Cisco racks.
At the end of your course, take the CCNP practice test to check how much you remember. Take it as many times as you like.
