Rev Up to Recert: Your Catalyst for Learning Cisco SD-WAN

This holiday season, Rev Up to Recert is all about Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN. Since joining Cisco Learning & Certifications as a content developer back in 2020, I’ve been responsible for leading the development of our SD-WAN Learning Paths. This includes the Cisco SD-WAN Operation and Deployment | SDWFND 2.0 Learning Path that is currently available in Cisco U. Free until February 16, 2024.

More recently, though, I’ve also been leading the development of our Designing and Implementing Cloud Connectivity | ENCC Learning Path, which includes a substantial amount of Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN content to ensure that it aligns closely with the Designing and Implementing Cloud Connectivity v1.0 (ENCC 300-440) exam topics.

So, if you are thinking about getting into Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, here are the top 5 things you can do now to start your learning journey.
