Hi,

I have practical experience in Extreme, but I have not tried to take an exam yet. I would like to know the details of the certificates, the method of the exam and the cost

Hi Mohamed,

 

I remember there was an exam part number in the past, now I canā€™t find it in the pricefile. Seems itā€™s gone. But as far as I understand, you have two options:

  • take part in a training that you are interested in (typically 4 days, or - if youā€™re a partner - alternatively free videos and 2-day lab session) and youā€™ll get 2 exam attempts with it,
  • register for a ā€˜Ninja Challengeā€™ - thatā€™s a half-day supervised lab session and a more difficult exam with higher passing threshold to prove the experience.

Currently there are Ninja Challenges available for 5 certifications, but youā€™ll have to find this kind of ā€œtrainingā€ on the Dojo (dojo.extremenetworks.com, single sign-on with extremeportal.force.com).

You can also find actual portfolio there, or at https://www.extremenetworks.com/education/courses/ - but I see some glitch in my browser when I select Wireless branch. Currently for wireless there are three classes available, ExtremeWireless Core (WiNG + XCA), ExtremeWireless Cloud (formerly Aerohive ACMA), ExtremeWireless Cloud Troubleshooting.

Besides post-sales ECS (Extreme Certified Specialist) certifications, there are also sales (ESS) and pre-sales (EDS) video-based trainings available. Partners can get some benefits in the partner program with some number of certifications achieved.

Regarding the exam, itā€™s run online at the Dojo. Single-choice and multi-choice questions.

Should you have any more questions, let us know or e-mail the Learn team via learn@extremenetworks.com.

 

Hope that helps,

Tomasz
