Cyber Security Training Catalog – Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) Series!

Overview:

This CWNA – Certified Wireless Network Administrator course covers the functions and features of a Certified Wireless Network Administrator within a organization. Students will learn the fundamentals of RF signal and antenna concepts, components and measurements of RF as well as WLAN topologies. They will then learn about Wi-Fi access, IEEE 802.11, MAC architecture and WLAN architecture, troubleshooting and security, types of wireless attacks. They will also learn how to navigate site survey tools, high throughput (HT), PoE, BYOD and more.

The CWNA certification is the foundation level enterprise Wi-Fi certification for the CWNP Program. CWNA certification will get you started in your wireless career by ensuring you have the skills to successfully survey, install, and administer enterprise Wi-Fi networks. As the market and usage of wireless increases, the demand for this certification will increase. The CWNA is also required for your CWSP, CWAP, CWDP and CWNE certifications.
