Cisco Certified Network Professional Collaboration Certification

CCNP Collaboration certification is obtained by successfully passing the CORE Exam (preparatory course: CLCOR) and one of the CONCENTRATION Exams (preparatory courses: CLICA, CLACCM, CCLCEI, or CLAUTO). The order is not important: You can first take a CORE and then a CONCENTRATION exam or vice versa. However, a CORE exam requires more and deeper preparation, since a CORE course covers the essentials of the respective technology. In the CONCENTRATION area of each technology, more in-depth knowledge of a specialization is required.
