Vinsys is a globally admired Corporate and Individual training provider with 25+ years of verifiable experience. Our instructor-led online courses, internationally-acclaimed expertise, customizable skill-development programs, and 24*7 learner support ensure the most comprehensive Cisco upskilling arrangement, a must for capitalizing on valuable network automation opportunities.
No, it combines instructor-led classroom training with video demos.
Two, however, except for the Cisco DevNet specialist, you will have to clear a core exam as well before securing the second certification.
Please note, 300-910 is merely a concentration exam. Such exams allow you to customize your credentials as per your chosen technical areas of focus. To achieve the Cisco DevNet Professional certification, you must also clear the 350-901 DEVCOR core exam.
Cisco DevNet Professional: 300-435 ENAUTO, 300-835 CLAUTO, 300-635 DCAUTO, 300-535 SPAUTO, 300-735 SAUTO, 300-915 DEVIOT or 300-920 DEVWBX.
No, only 300-910 DEVOPS is sufficient.
CI/CD Pipeline, Automating Infrastructure, and Logging/Monitoring/Metrics (20% each)
The 40 CE (Continuing Education) credits you receive after completing the Cisco DEVOPS v1.0 course can be used for recertification, as barring the CCIE, exams for all other credentials are valid only for three years.
