Network Programmability Design And Implementation Specialist

Cisco's new Network Programmability Design and Implementation Specialist (NPDESI) certification is designed for network engineers to learn crucial network programmability skills.

"It explains network programmability and talks about things like Linux and Python, automotive protocols – really focusing on our traditional network base," said Vashi. "These are network engineers that now need to evolve their skills and learn more about software programmability, automation and orchestration."

Partners will receive a "soup-to-nuts" curriculum to develop and validate automation and programming skills that addresses the evolving role of network engineers.
