Who should take this course in Cisco Meraki firewalls?

Is this training in Cisco Meraki firewalls associated with any certifications?

No, this Cisco Meraki firewall training isn't designed to help you pass any particular certification exam. Certifications tend to be broad, and this course is solely focused on administration and configuration of Meraki firewalls, and you'll get tons of hands-on practice and experience doing that.

Why should you take this Cisco Meraki firewall training?

As a network administrator, you have to choose whether you're only going to learn the tools you use every day and never expand, or if you'll explore new technologies and accumulate knowledge and expertise beyond your immediate needs. Take this course to advance your career and prepare for new challenges.
