The Enterprise Wireless LAN Administration 5.0 course provides the networking professional a complete foundation of knowledge for entering into or advancing in the wireless networking industry. From basic RF theory to 802.11 frame exchange processes, this course delivers hands-on training that will benefit the novice as well as the experienced network professional. The CWNA certification is the foundation level enterprise Wi-Fi certification for the CWNP Program. Your CWNA certification will get you started in your wireless career by ensuring you have the skills to successfully survey, install, and administer enterprise Wi-Fi networks. The salary for Network Administrators has increased significantly since 2005, and continues to do so as the market and usage of wireless increases.
Students who complete the course will acquire the necessary skills for analyzing, assessing, and troubleshooting wireless operation in the enterprise, utilizing hardware and software solutions from the industry’s leading manufacturers.
