CCNA Routing and Switching Scope and Sequence

(DRAFT)
Last updated 14 June 2013
This DRAFT Scope and Sequence for the Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum is an evolving document that will be
revised on a regular basis as we progress though the development and release cycles. Our objective is to share detailed
information about the curriculum and the courses with academies and instructors as soon as possible. For the most recent version
of this document, please view the CCNA Routing and Switching Instructor Resource Spotlight page in the Cisco NetSpace
learning environment.

Target Audience
The Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum is designed for Cisco Networking Academy students who are seeking entrylevel jobs in the ICT industry or hope to fulfill prerequisites to pursue more specialized ICT skills. CCNA Routing and Switching
provides an integrated and comprehensive coverage of networking topics, from fundamentals to advanced applications and
services, while providing opportunities for hands-on practical experience and career skills development.
The curriculum is appropriate for students at many education levels and types of institutions, including high schools, secondary
schools, universities, colleges, career and technical schools, and community centers.

Curriculum Overview
The CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum consists of seven courses, with four courses that make up the recommended learning
path and three additional courses that support the transition of CCNA Exploration instructors and students to the new CCNA
Routing and Switching curriculum. No transitional courses are needed for CCNA Discovery instructors and students.
Students will be prepared to take the Cisco CCENT certification exam after completing a set of two courses and the CCNA
Routing and Switching certification exam after completing a set of four courses. The curriculum also helps students develop
workforce readiness skills and builds a foundation for success in networking-related careers and degree programs. Figure 1 shows
the different courses included in the CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum.

In each course, Networking Academy students will learn technology concepts with the support of interactive media and apply and
practice this knowledge through a series of hands-on and simulated activities that reinforce their learning.

and services provided to those applications by the lower layers of the network. Students will progress from basic networking to
more complex enterprise and theoretical networking models later in the curriculum.
