CCNP Voice - Cisco Certified Network Professional Voice

Cisco recently completed a significant upgrade to their CCVP programme, including a new name: Cisco Certified Network Professional Voice (CCNP Voice). The topics covered on these new exams better reflect the daily job tasks of Cisco Unified Communications and VoIP professionals and have streamlined the process of getting certified by eliminating the enterprise/commercial option.

New to the CCNP Voice Programme?

Once you have earned the prerequisite CCNA Voice certification, you'll need to pass five exams: CVOICE v8 (642-437), CIPT1 v8 (642-447), CIPT2 v8 (642-457), TVOICE (642-427), and CAPPS (642-467) to achieve CCNP Voice certification. The new courses that will help you prepare for the exams are:

Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Voice over IP and QoS v8.0 (CVOICE v8)
Implementing Cisco Unified Communications IP Telephony Part 1 (CIPT1 v8)
Implementing Cisco Unified Communications IP Telephony Part 2 (CIPT2 v8)
Troubleshooting UC Systems v8.0 (TVOICE)
Integrating Cisco Unified Communications Applications v8.0 (CAPPS)

Already Working Toward Your CCVP?

There is a transition period between the CCVP and CCNP Voice certification until February 28^th, 2011 and it will be possible to mix and match the courses and exams for candidates who have already begun working towards CCVP certification.
