I have a question about:
Course Information
How can I enroll in ECMS1 training?
You can find & enroll in instructor-led sessions delivered by Cisco Learning Partners through the Cisco Learning Locator. Digital, self-paced learning options are available in the Cisco Learning Network Store.
What topics are covered in ECMS1?
You can find more details on the course content here.
What is the difference between ECMS1 and ECMS2?
ECMS1 and ECMS2 are part of the ECMS technical training track. ECMS1 is an introductory-level course that focuses on the core knowledge and skills to operate the Cisco Meraki platform. ECMS2 is an advanced-level course focusing on the knowledge and skills to plan, design, implement, and operate complex Cisco Meraki solutions.
Do I have to take ECMS1 before attending ECMS2?
Attending ECMS1 is not a requirement to attend ECMS2. However, in order to successfully participate in an ECMS2 session, attendees should have ECMS1 equivalent Meraki knowledge and experience.
Eligibility and Registration
What are the eligibility requirements to attend?
ECMS1 sessions are open to all audiences interested in learning to operate the Cisco Meraki platform as well as those who are interested in preparing for the Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist certification.
What does “CCNA or equivalent” mean?
The ECMS1 course is designed with an expectation that participants have a basic understanding of computer networking. This prerequisite enables our participants to better understand topics and discuss products, features, and demo configuration of Cisco Meraki devices effectively. We do not require proof of an active or expired Cisco CCNA certification prior to enrolling in ECMS1. However, we highly recommend that participants come prepared with CCNA-level knowledge or on-the-job training to have the best experience while going through the course.
I don't see any available ECMS1 sessions in my region on the Cisco Learning Locator site - how do I register for a session?
Learning Partners add ECMS1 sessions to the schedule on a rolling basis. We recommend checking the Cisco Learning Locator site regularly to see if new sessions have been added.
Certification
Will I get a certification for attending ECMS1?
The ECMS1 and ECMS2 courses do not come with a certification as they are meant to prepare individuals to pass the Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist certification.
When will the Meraki certification be available?
The Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist certification is available now. You can find more information about the certification here.
