How to Sign Up for a CCNA Test
Cisco Systems offers different levels of Information Technology (IT) certification for IT techs in many companies. The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification indicates an apprentice-level knowledge of networking. It verifies the ability to install, operate and maintain medium-sized networks. Cisco teams with Pearson Vue, their authorized testing partner, to administer all of their certification exams. In order to take the CCNA, you must register for and take the exam through Pearson Vue.
