At the end of March, Cisco announced a redesign to their long-time CCNA certification program. The CCNA certification has become the CCNA Routing and Switching certification.

To align with changing job roles in the industry, this update will fill the skills gaps that emerge when technology outpaces skills development and training. CCNA Routing and Switching focuses on network infrastructure, mainly routing and switching, but it also includes wireless access, security, and connectivity to branch offices using WAN.
