[cisco-voip] CCNA/CCNP Collaboration certs

Tue Feb 17 15:07:17 EST 2015

I had to take 5 exams to get my CCNP Voice and it was a pain in my ass, as I recall. I'll have to read up and see if it applies to me. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks,

Ryan

Unless you past your exam many moons ago and took previous exams.

Dennis,

The conversion tool shows that CIPTV2 is the only test that CCNP Voice needs to convert to CCNP Collaboration. This is really new info though so it could change.

As of this writing the CCNP Voice retirement date is listed as Q4 2015 and PearsonVue doesn't even have 300-075 (CIPTV2) listed as a schedue-lable test yet.

>From what I understand, the CIPTV2 test covers video related material. Given that the CCIE Collaboration is based on the 9.x stack I assume the topics will cover things like Collaboration Edge, Jabber Video, Telepresence ... etc

Thanks,

Ryan

What exam is required to convert CCNP voice to CCNP collaboration?

What gets me is that a CCNP Voice needs one test to upgrade to CCNP Collaboration (http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/tools/ccnp_collab/ccnp_collab_tool.html).

Really? Only one test's worth of info is what changes between Voice and Collaboration?

If you are going to retire and invalidate a credential and move to another tract altogether, then it should be a top-down revamp, not just one test of a few new questions about video.

This feels like it is nothing more than re branding/marketing; and I shouldn't have to pay for that.

My grumpy two cents,

Ryan

Is it just me or does it seem weird for a CCNA level to now require two tests.  Money grab?
