CCNA Salary
A CCNA salary is one of the highest a professional worker in the United States can make. And that comes as no surprise, for a CCNA, or Cisco Certified Network Associate, does very demanding work that requires specialized training.
So does one prepare for a job with a CCNA salary?
The courses required to get a CCNA certificate— of which there are five levels (Entry, Associate, Professional, Expert, and Architect)— may be taken either on the campus of one of Cisco’s many schools of training, or over the web. If one is opting for the latter, one can go to ccnacourses.net. Some of the classes offered include the following:
- The introductory courses are Introduction to Cisco Networking Technologies (INTRO) and the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND). At this level one learns the basics of networking as well as some of the terminology.
- Switch Technology— The student studies how to prevent collisions, which are always bad, by understanding LAN networks. Loops and bridges are also covered.
- Internal and External Composition of Routers— covers the internal components (ROM, Flash Memory, RAM, NVRAM and Network Interfaces) and the external ones (how to configure a router from an outside network interface
- the CCNA Voice certification— This course is excellent for the student who is aiming to become a network engineer. Such a student will then learn the Components of Cisco Unified Communications Architecture, the importance of infrastructure, and other things.
The courses come under a number of modules, including the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (covering catalyst switches and linking routers with both LANs and WANs) and the CCNA Prep Center Pilot.
Before the student enrolls in any of these courses, he might wish to take a preparatory test, either in split form (INTRO and ICND) or as a single CCNA test. The former concentrates more on the specific areas to be covered. Classes available for those who wish to specialize include CCNA Routing & Switching, CCNA security, CCNA Voice, and CCNA Wireless.

As a last word, it is also possible to take the Rivan Results Systems Package of courses. When you do, you study with the help of two mentors: instruction from a seasoned veteran, and a personal success coach to assist one’s academic development.
The lowest CCNA salary one can expect is the $50,000 made by a network engineer. And higher- level jobs often pay well over $60,000.
If you wish for a high five- digit salary, then a CCNA salary may be just for you. And CCNA courses are less difficult than other classes given by Cisco.
