Hello Fabio,
The first time I heard about the new exams, it was a bit of a shock š
Cisco throws everything upside down. All CCNA exams are gone except for one āgeneralā CCNA exam. CCNP is also completely different now.
The new [CCNA 200-301](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/ccna-200-301.html) exam is pretty good though. Most topics are about R&S with some newer topics like network automation. There is about **25% less material** compared to the old ICND1 + ICND2 exams. CCNA now covers the ābasicsā and everything else is moved to CCNP.
To become CCNP certified you now need to **pass only two exams**. The core exam is a requirement:
- Core exam: Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies [300-401 ENCOR](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/encor-300-401.html)
And choose one of the concentration exams:
- Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services [300-410 ENARSI](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enarsi-300-410.html)
- Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions [300-415 ENSDWI](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/ensdwi-300-415.html)
- Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks [300-430 ENWLSI](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enwlsi-300-430.html)
- Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks [300-425 ENWLSD](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enwlsd-300-425.html)
- Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks [300-420 ENSLD](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/ensld-300-420.html)
- Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions
[300-435 ENAUTO](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enauto-300-435.html)
The **CCIE R&S written exam is gone**. [300-410 ENARSI](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enarsi-300-410.html) is now a requirements to book a lab seat. Also **CCIE R&S has been renamed to CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure**.
Iām currently working on creating new course pages for the courses. I have most of the material for [CCNA 200-301](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/ccna-200-301.html) so hopefully in a few weeks, I can finish it. Iāll then start with [300-401 ENCOR](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/encor-300-401.html) and probably do [300-410 ENARSI](https://www.cisco.com/content/en/us/training-events/training-certifications/exams/current-list/enarsi-300-410.html) next. I think that will be the most popular concentration exam.
If you or anyone else has any questions about this, let us know ok?

Thanks for updating the page with the new CCNA material - helps me to fill in any blanks.
Is there a general planned delivery time for the new CCNP material please? I know a lot of the existing CCNP material on the site will to some degree transfer over so Iāve been using that for learning along with gaining my own experience and learning doing my day-to-day Cisco work at my company.
Thanks,
Rich

Hi Rich,
We are currently building the new CCNP ENCOR + ENARSI course pages. I hope to have most of it online in a week or two.

Hello Recardo
There doesnāt seem to be any restriction in which exam you should take first. In order to achieve the CCNP Enterprise certification, you must have passed both ENCOR as well as ENWLSI (or any one of the other of the concentration exams). The order doesnāt seem to matter. However, Cisco does recommend that you take ENCOR first as it will give you some more helpful and fundamental knowledge before taking ENWLSI. Remember, thatās how Cisco designed the exams, so if you donāt have a very serious reason to do it differently, itās a good idea to go for ENCOR and then the concentration exam of your choiceā¦
I hope this has been helpful!
