A solid foundation for the rest of the wireless world. While no certification can cover every single wireless technology in use today, it is important for wireless professionals to grasp the most frequently used wireless solutions in organizations. The Certified Wireless IoT Solutions Administrator (CWISA) learning materials and exam will ensure students know these common wireless certification solutions and prove their knowledge through.
CWISA is built upon two decades of historic quality in WLAN (802.11) certifications and begins the extension of CWNP offerings into the non-802.11 wireless solutions:
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
- Machine to Machine Communications (M2M)
- Zigbee
- ISA100.11a and WirelessHART
- 802.15.4
- LoRa/LoRaWAN
- Sigfox
- Thread
- 6LoWPan
- Location Services
- Wired-Side Supporting Technologies
- High-Level Awareness of APIs and Automation/Integration Concepts
- Project and Program Management Specific to Wireless Solutions Projects
If you are familiar with the CWNA certification and learning materials, the CWISA will have the same approximate depth and breadth of learning. Additional certifications address key areas in greater depth, such as automation/integration (CWIIP), IoT requirements and design (CWIDP), and IoT protocol functionality (CWICP).
