SYNOPSIS
Certified Wireless Network Professional’s CWNA (Certified Wireless Network Administrator) is
an entry-level certification for those IT professionals who are new to wireless networking
but who want to come “up to speed quickly,” as well as for those IT professionals “already
familiar with wireless LANs” and who want to fill “in any gaps in their knowledge, and
prove their expertise to help their competitive edge.”
Planet3 Wireless launched the CWNA certification in the summer of 2001. Fairly recently,
the certification changed from version 1.0 to 2.0. In terms of recertification, essentially
candidates may either: 1) “recertify by passing the latest version of their current level
of CWNP certification within 24 months of the initial date of the latest level of
certification earned”; or 2) “maintain a valid CWNP certification status by earning the next
level of certification within the CWNP Program within 24 months of the initial date of the
previous level of certification earned.”
Job roles of those pursuing this certification typically include: network administrators,
system administrators, and other IT professionals with wireless in their titles.
To achieve the CWNA a candidate must pass one exam.
