Cisco CCNA Certification
(Cisco Certified Network Associate)
CCNA Certification Exam Code Number: 640-802
Arguably, Cisco is number one company making Network related products and has a large install base. Based on this dominant market share, it has created a demand for certified individuals in London. Training in an area where there is such a large demand would make sense for anyone who is in a technical profession seeking a credential or for someone who wants to make an entry into the networking world. This course provides an entry into the “World of Cisco.”
Once you finish your CCNA, you can install, configure and operate local and wide area networks (LAN and WAN), optimize network performance and provide remote access thru dial-up connections.
CCNA is also a prerequisite for getting designated as the Cisco Certified Networking Professional (CCNP). Hence, a Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) is considered the entry or associate level among the Cisco Career Certifications program.
The course is offered in London. It is instructor led, fast-paced and hands-on, for 10 weeks leading to a CCNA certification.

Cisco CCNA Certification Overview
Until few years ago the only certification course
offered by Cisco was CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork
Expert), but now this main Cisco certification
has branched out to 26 different certifications,
which gives us ample choice of Cisco certification
courses including 2 certifications at the associate
level, 4 at the professional level, 3 expert level
certifications, and 17 specialist certifications.
The CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate)
training courses can be used as a starting
point for higher level certifications courses,
such as the CCDA (Cisco Certified Design Associate)
courses CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional)
courses and CCDP (Cisco Certified Design Professional)
courses, CCIP (Internetworking Professional) courses,
and CCSP (Security Professional) courses.
The CCNA course is for students and IT professionals
who want to learn how to “install, configure,
and operate LAN, WAN, and dial access services
for small networks, use protocols such as: IP,
IGRP, Serial, Frame Relay, IP RIP, VLANs, RIP,
Ethernet, integrated via hands-on instructor led
training in London. Cisco certifications training
perpetually score in the top five, as Cisco's
market share in the networking market in London
creates a demand for certified individuals.
