Online CCNA Training India & Cisco Certification Course
Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) training is available online and is provided through the Cisco Networking Academy along with a host of other Information Technology (IT) courses. The need for a system that could be networked and maintained in schools and colleges was recognized in the early 90’s. However, the Cisco Networking Academy was not up and running until 1997, but proved successful with students and tutors alike and has continued to develop to meet rising demands for online training.
Students who have access to online training are much more aware of the uses and advantages of having an online-based teaching system. The fact that students are introduced to computers at an early age at school or perhaps before that at home, they are completely comfortable and confident in using the equipment. So when it comes to online CCNA training the prospect holds no fears for students and they will be able to get the most out of their training by making full use of:-
- Access to online teaching support and discussion groups for students and teachers.
- Access to free online CCNA study guides and materials that students can download for home reading before attending Academy session.
- Access to hands-on lab exercises providing the student with the opportunity to try out their practical skills in a safe real-time environment.
- On-line based practical and theory assessments with valuable feedback.
- Benchmarking of their progress against the online initial assessment to help identify weak spots.
- The ability to progress through the course work at a steady pace.
- The online work period is geared to highlight the important points that will come up in the assessments.
- It is possible to fit the training around other commitments such as work and family.
- Students can revise and return to areas of study that they are not comfortable with.
- Online CCNA training is available worldwide in different languages.
- Access to Cisco’s learning community and CCNA experts.
Although several students may be accessing the assessment at the same time, the tutor can see the work from the individual students at the same time, but each student only sees their own. The tutor can communicate with anyone of the students, at any one time, or with them all at the same time. So although the students are scattered across the world they can all be connected at the same time through the tutor allowing for group discussions.
CCNA Boot Camp in Mumbai
When you want to get your CCNA certification in super quick time then a CCNA boot camp may be the answer. Sometimes due to personal commitments or work pressures, you don’t have the time or the inclination to spend long periods of time slaving away to get your certification. A CCNA boot camp is a focused course that condenses the whole syllabus down into an intensive course that may only take a week. This is not an easy week but a CCNA boot camp is the start of the process to get your CCNA certification.
Advantages of a CCNA Boot Camp
When looking at a CCNA boot camp as opposed to a traditional training course there are some major advantages for the CCNA boot camp. The training is done with a high degree of hands-on. This means when you are being taught about some aspect of the theory, what better way to illustrate it, than to actually see it in practice. But even better than that, you can have the hands-on experience to try out that concept too. This approach moves the concepts out of the theory arena and makes them the real world.
CCNA Practical Assessments Training
Tutors can set practical assessments based on real live network and router situations. They can build in parameters that create a problem in response to a student’s actions. Students are then required to rectify or troubleshoot the problem. The tutorial is set to provide the student and the tutor with feedback on the exercise, highlighting any problem areas or difficulties. This CCNA tutorial helps the student to improve their practical skills as well as the theory behind the exercise.
CCNA Boot Camp Guarantees
It is quite common for a CCNA boot camp provider to also give a success guarantee. This means they are committed to:-
- Seeing you pass your exams – otherwise, they will put you through another set of training to get you there. In this sense, while a CCNA boot camp is expensive to enroll in, getting your certification in a short time rather than slogging it out over a number of months can pay off immediately. And given the success guarantees, even if you should not pass the exam, it will not be money wasted as you will have another opportunity to gain the certification, at no further cost.
- Learning via a CCNA boot camp should offer you a qualified instructor and good test equipment to practice on. The ratio of people to the equipment available should ensure you get plenty of hands-on time to become competent in all aspects.
- There should be lots of exam simulation practice and this will be supported by learning materials such as online sample questions, written material.
- While it may not seem important at the time when you are working hard, this will also be a good networking opportunity. The other people on the course are your peers and their contact in the future may prove invaluable.
