The CCNA wirless focuses on the Cisco kit, I am impressed that Kevin recommended the CCNA Wireless and thats really honest of him. I have a CCNA Wireless and I am studying The CWNA, its filling alot of knowledge gaps for me personally as it goes into greater depth than the CCNA Wireless on RF principles. Alot is stuff I knew about but not te details.

To expand on what Kevin said you may actually major in another vendors wireless product such as Aruba who have a certification program. OK Cisco will open more doors I guess. Personally yes the CWSP will be a challenge, but its well worth it.

If you want a career in wireless then welcome to a very small community of talented individuals. I don't include myself in that "talented" part just yet however I am working towards it. If you are a network engineer it may be beneficial to develope your networking skills aswell as your wireless skills, in fact it will be beneficial anyway.

Good luck in whatever you choose

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
