Cisco certifications,
CCNA to CCNP
Two courses, each preparing for Cisco exams named by code and version - the 200-301 CCNA, and the ENCOR and ENARSI pair of CCNP Enterprise. Taught in Hebrew, on Cisco equipment in the academy lab in Shoham and in Cisco Modeling Labs.
How the track
is taught
Each course here is preparation for a Cisco exam named by code and version, and follows the exam topics Cisco publishes. The instructors are network engineers from the group's own teams, who hold the certifications and run networks like these day to day.
The exams themselves are booked through Pearson VUE, at a test centre or online with OnVUE, and the Cisco Learning Network carries the official exam topics and free study resources.
By code and version
200-301 CCNA v1.1, 350-401 ENCOR v1.2, 300-410 ENARSI v1.1. Every module maps to a published exam domain.
Instructors from the field
Network engineers from the group's own teams, who hold the certifications and run these networks for the group's customers.
The rack and the simulator
Cisco equipment in the academy rack in Shoham, and Packet Tracer and Cisco Modeling Labs for work between sessions.
Three years, then renew
CCNA, CCNP and CCIE are valid three years. Recertify by retaking the exam, advancing a level, or Continuing Education credits.
The Cisco ladder
and where we teach
Three levels in the enterprise track. CCNA is one exam with no prerequisites; CCNP Enterprise is the ENCOR core plus one of six concentration exams; CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure is ENCOR plus an eight-hour hands-on lab exam. We teach the first two.
- CCNA Associate - 200-301 Preparation at the academy
- CCNP Professional - 350-401 ENCOR and a concentration exam Preparation at the academy
- CCIE Expert - ENCOR and a hands-on lab exam
Two courses
on the track
CCNA first, CCNP Enterprise after it. Both are open to individuals in an evening cohort and to teams in an intensive format.
Cisco CCNA

ExploreCisco CCNP Enterprise (ENCOR + ENARSI)
Preparation for the Cisco CCNP Enterprise certification - the 350-401 ENCOR core exam and the 300-410 ENARSI concentration, following the exam topics Cisco publishes.

Written to the blueprint
The syllabus follows Cisco's published exam topics and their weights, so lab time goes where the exam puts its questions.
Hebrew in the room, English on the exam
Sessions are in Hebrew. The course materials and the exam are in English, and the terms are used the way the exam uses them.
The next step is on the same track
CCNA leads to CCNP Enterprise, and the ENCOR exam counts for CCNP and as the qualifying exam for the CCIE lab. The two courses are built in that order.
