I doubled my salary after getting my first CCNP. This cert changed my life. And everytime I get a new one, my skills improve, therfore, I am more attractive to any employer.
When was that? What year? This is 2023 going into 2024 is it still holding same worth?
@@joejoe2452 I got CCNP Enterprise in 2021. Then CCDevP (DevNet Professional) and CCNP Service Provider in 2023. Now considering CCNP DC for 2024. Why so many CCNPs? Because each track covers important topics that I need for my job. At the end of the day, it's just knowledge. Is it worth? 1000%. Every single person I know that has a CCNP, also has a decent job. Of course, ultimately it will depend on your goals. I would say, CCNP, AWS and a Fortinet cert will open any door. But, chase the knowledge, the money will come eventually.
@@joejoe2452of course. Just type in CCNP on indeed and look at all of the jobs . Or look for network engineer/ network admin . Lots of jobs in the cities
Really ? Can you give me more detail? What is your job? What was you salary before the ccnp ?
@@joejoe2452 I’m sure it is. CCNP is big dog status in these job seeking streets.
I highly recommend the CCNP certification! It's a well known and valuable certification. Easy to find jobs with it. But the Core exam is definitely a tough one and needs experience and good preparation.
not really man, with a good brain dump you can pass it… Theres people passing it that Im sure dont have the experience to back it up.
@@Cris18Martinez yes i just finished ccna and thinking of ccnp security, dont have any networking background yet or studies. im just technician testing new serwers with some other certificates. Do you you think i can make it ? :)
Man! you nailed it .
Like every word you said was useful.
Thank you so much!
I have 9 years experience, Since I left the Royal Artillery (British Army) I passed my old school CCNA Switch and Router. I am currently doing my CCNP ENCOR Enterprise. To be honest I am finding the CBT Nuggets really useful. It's helpful in it helps me refresh skills I haven't used for a long time and is updating my knowledge on SDA, SD-WAN etc.. Things I have no knowledge on as I have usually worked with UK Defence sector business. They tend to have more traditional networks or air gapped networks
Is CBT Nuggets going to update the ENCOR course to fit the current exam 350-401 v1.1?
I you look at the Job market, you will see that Cisco Certification is still a requirement because as Jeremy Ciora Said: Many Company Just wanted to be like Cisco, so Cisco person could easily adapt to other Vendors equipment.
i haven't watch it,
I'll take it anyway.
I hear a lot that networking certifications are not that useful today because a lot of companies are moving to the cloud and there are less and less network engineer positions. Ofc Cloud also means networking but not the same way as before.
I disagree. My team manages the networking aspects of a massive AWS environment and On-Prem Data Centers in multiple countries. Network Engineers have evolved. Traditional Engineers will struggle. But as long as the Network Engineer is able to adapt, then no problem.

Thank you for answering. Could you describe a bit more the networking aspects and techologies of your position ?
@@wer_gumizz1012 I'm a Sr. Network Automation Engineer. That means, I have to automate the Network Operations regardless of the environment. AWS, Kubernetes, Firewalls, etc., are part of my daily routines. The traditional networking knowledge is necessary because I can't automate what I don't understand (e.g. New BGP peers). But once the fundamentals have been covered, I rely on tools such as Terraform, Python, Jenkins, Ansible, etc., to do my job. My role is like a combination of a DevOps Engineer + Network Engineer.
That’s why you get networking AND cloud now … what’s one more certification? You’re supposed to want to be well rounded anyways .
@@FeR-kt1jt agree
Now days you can’t even find job with CCNA. So what is the purpose of doing CCNP?
i bought both the books and ebooks, if you guys interested i can sell each for 11$
which version do you have ?
Any Cisco related cert is only good if you live in north america. In the rest of the world, all ISP and customer are migrating to Huawei so any HCIA HCIP has the same weight. (see gartner quadrant).
Not even Canad is safe. Here a CCNA is worthless
absolutely wrong ... switzerland just cisco and forti* ...
In Australia I don't think anyone is going to Huawei due to issues with China and potential backdoors that might be hidden in their equipment, security risks
A friend of mine joined Huawei due to CCNP. Go figure...
CCNA can earn you 100k plus easy in Canada. Certificate is only 1 part of resume. @@sp4cejock3y23
