ENCOR and ENARSI classes are covered in this 10-day course designed to help you achieve CCNP Enterprise certification. The CCNP Enterprise Bootcamp covers ENCOR during the first week and ENARSI during the second week. We refer to it as a bootcamp because the class covers all the material you will need for the certification.

The Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) course gives you the knowledge and skills needed to configure, troubleshoot, and manage enterprise wired and wireless networks. You’ll also learn to implement security principles within an enterprise network and how to overlay network design by using solutions such as SD-Access and SD-WAN.

The Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI) course gives you the knowledge you need to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot an enterprise network. This course covers advanced routing and infrastructure technologies, expanding on the topics covered in the ENCOR course.

To earn your CCNP Enterprise you must pass 2 exams:
1 Core Exam (ENCOR) + 1 Concentration Exam (ENARSI)
