CCNP - Cisco Certified Network Professional

According to Cisco, "CCNP certification validates a network professional's ability to install, configure and troubleshoot converged local and wide area networks with 100 to 500 or more nodes. Network Professionals who achieve the CCNP have demonstrated the knowledge and skills required to manage the routers and switches that form the network core, as well as edge applications that integrate voice, wireless, and security into the network."
Global Knowledge is proud to have been an integral partner in the development of the updated BSCI and BCMSN courses, and is committed to delivering the most up-to-date curriculum available.

Overview of the courses:

BSCI - Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks v3.0

Develop an advanced set of skills to help you optimize the configuration and deployment of a Cisco router-based internetwork. Learn the complex concepts and commands necessary to configure Cisco routers for scalable operation in large and/or growing internetworks. Whether your goal is to take your Cisco routing skills to the next level or to achieve CCNP or CCIP certification, this is the right course for you.

BCMSN - Building Cisco Multilayer Switched Networks v3.0

Implement campus networks using multilayer switching technologies over high-speed Ethernet and wireless topologies. This course addresses the integration of routing and switching technologies to create an efficient campus network.
