The CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) Certification is a foundation and beginner level of networking and the only exam required to achieve Cisco Routing and Switching certification at Associate Level.

CCNA is for individuals who are interested in building a future in networking domain on Cisco products. CCNA Certification is the prerequisite for any Cisco Certification. If you want to reach a Professional or Expert level in the Cisco Career Certification tracks, Passing CCNA test is the first step.

A CCNA candidate must prove familiarity and expertise with, among other subjects, Cisco's IOS, TCP/IP, LAN and WAN technologies and management, switching and routing protocols, the OSI model, LAN troubleshooting, and be familiar with a variety of communication protocols, some Cisco-specific and some not.

The test presents between 50 & 60 questions within a 90 minute period; The test includes multiple choice questions, matching questions, and simulated 'lab' questions that provide a virtual network consisting of several routers and switches to test troubleshooting skills. The test is scored from 300 to 1000 marks, with 300 being the minimum marks that everyone is granted. A grade of 84.9% (849 out of 1000) is required to pass. Pass or fail grade is indicated immediately on completion of test.

There is also a two-test option using the INTRO and ICND tests. This allows the candidate to focus on certain subjects. INTRO covers modules 1 & 2 of the CCNA curriculum and ICND covers 3 & 4.

The certification is valid for three years; at that time a CCNA holder must either re-take the certification exam or take an exam for one of the Professional or Specialist level certifications, such as CCNP. At one point, the CCNA re-certification exam was different from the CCNA exam, but this is no longer the case.
