Kind of a big deal

Studying the tools, doing practical labs, reading the official materials.

But the best way, in my opinion, is through practice, experiencing projects, facing difficulties and finding solutions. In other words, there is nothing better than acquiring experience.

I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

Thanks for the information!  But where can I get all of the training materials that will help me to accomplish this? Can you send me links of all of the resources? Thanks Alemabrahao!

Hi @Timc95 


Please see the links below:

 

Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist Certification (CMSS) 

ECMS Exam Self-study Guide 

 

I am sure there are some other 3rd party trainings available but the links above should be sufficient. If you've been using the Meraki dashboard for over 2 years the exam shouldn't be too difficult after you go through the self guided tour.

You can purchase the book "Cisco Meraki Fundamentals" from Cisco Press and this should help you on your journey.
