History Of CCNA Certification
CCNA certification was developed in 1998 by CISCO. It was originally Cisco Certified Internetwork Engineer (CCIE) in 1993 to be the first IT certification. CCIE was created by Mr. Stuart Biggs, targeted towards networkers but was altered and developed for the computer networking world. Now it has to evolve to installing, configuring, and managing networks.
Since 1998, the examination has been changed to be more object oriented. It has also benefited individuals to gain the right qualification in networking or to get into networking.
