Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Enterprise is Cisco's professional-tier enterprise networking certification. It sits between CCNA (associate) and CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure (expert), and proves you can plan, deploy, operate and optimise enterprise networks at a senior level. CCNP Enterprise requires two exams. First, the core exam 350-401 ENCOR (Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies), a 120- minute exam covering architecture, virtualisation, infrastructure, network assurance, security and automation (including SD-WAN, SD-Access, QoS and Catalyst/DNA Center). Second, one concentration exam of your choice - for example advanced routing (300-410 ENARSI), SD-WAN (300-415 ENSDWI), design (300-420 ENSLD), automation (300-435 ENAUTO), cloud connectivity (300-440 ENCC) or network assurance (300- 445 ENNA). Importantly, passing the core exam alone also earns the standalone Cisco Certified Specialist - Enterprise Core certification and counts toward CCIE Enterprise.
CCNP Enterprise is the professional credential that marks you as a senior enterprise networking engineer. It proves deep, hands-on skill across routing, SD-WAN, SD-Access, security and automation, carries strong employer recognition, and is the gateway toward CCIE Enterprise. For experienced network engineers aiming at senior and architect roles - and higher pay - it is the certification to hold.
