ENWLSD Certification Training

Course Overview

Our 5- day, instructor-led ENWLSD (Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks v1.0) training and certification boot camp in Washington, DC Metro, Tysons Corner, VA, Columbia, MD or Live Online gives you the knowledge you need to design Cisco wireless networks. The course covers design specifics from scenario design concepts through the installation phase and into post-deployment validation. It will teach you to do the following:

• Describe and implement a Cisco-recommended structured design methodology
• Describe and implement industry standards, amendments, certifications, and RFCs
• Describe and implement Cisco enhanced wireless features
• Describe and implement the wireless design process
• Describe and implement specific vertical designs
• Describe and implement site survey processes
• Describe and implement network validation processes

This course, including the self-paced material, helps prepare you to take the exam, Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-425 ENWLSD), which leads to the new CCNP Enterprise and Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise Wireless Design certifications.
