Even CCNAs, which have been channeled into specific tracks
like security or wireless, are no longer able to speak the same language, says
Winchester. "They came out knowing security and wireless well, but were
unable to communicate the fundamentals of the network infrastructure and this
has become very evident."
Together with its board members, Winchester began pushing
Cisco for a more substantial change than the incremental steps it had taken so
far, such as adding some emerging technologies to track questions about
certification tests.
In the meantime, Cisco has listened not only to network
professionals who need to learn to support software-focused initiatives -
including programmability, multi-cloud, machine learning, artificial
intelligence, automation, Internet of Things, SD-WAN - but also by developers
who want to learn the basics online to interact with IT teams and perform simple
business tasks.
