CCENT
From Internetworkpro
The Cisco CCENT (Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician) certification validates the skills required for entry-level network support positions, the starting point for many successful careers in networking. Candidates should have the knowledge and skill to install, operate and troubleshoot a small enterprise branch network, including basic network security. CCENT certification is the first step toward achieving CCNA, which covers medium size enterprise branch networks with more complex connections.
[edit] Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites to the CCENT

The CCENT is obtained by passing the ICND1, which is the first of the two CCNA exams.
