Wymagania wstępne

Basic networking knowledge (OSI/IP). Basic network security concepts and wireless network administration CWNA or equivalent knowledge. To earn the CWAP certification, you must pass 2 exams: CWNA and CWAP

Poziom trudności
Czas trwania 3 dni
Certyfikat

The participants will obtain certificates signed by Compendium CE (course completion).

The CWAP certification is a professional level wireless LAN certification for the CWNP Program. To earn a CWAP certification, you must hold a current and valid CWNA credential. You must take the CWAP exam at a Pearson Vue Testing Center and pass with a 70% or higher. Instructors must pass with a 80% or higher. However you choose to prepare for the CWAP exam, you should start with the exam objectives, which cover the full list of skills tested on the exam. The CWAP certification is valid for three (3) years. To recertify, you must have a current CWNA credential and pass the current CWAP exam. By passing the CWAP exam, your CWNA certificate will be renewed for another three years.

CWAP exam is available through the Pearson VUE test centers.

Each participant in an authorized CWNP CWAP training held in Compendium CE will receive a free CWAP-404 Certified Wireless Analysis Professional Exam voucher.
