CWNP is the only organisation dedicated entirely to wireless networking — certifications that apply across all vendors and platforms.
CWNP certifications apply to all Wi-Fi and IoT hardware — Cisco, Aruba, Juniper, Ruckus, and any vendor you work with.
Two complete certification tracks — master wireless networking and the rapidly growing Internet of Things ecosystem.
Clear progression from Entry to Expert — each level builds the prerequisites for the next, ensuring deep mastery.
CWNE and CWISE are among the most exclusive IT credentials — earned through rigorous multi-cert requirements and board review.
Choose one track or pursue both — the expert-level CWNE even requires credentials from both tracks, making cross-track knowledge uniquely valuable.
