About this Course

This course is instructor-led training and includes instructor assisted, hands-on labs. The Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Voice Networks course is a 5 day ILT course, designed to help students prepare for the CCNP-Wireless certification, a professional level certification specializing in the wireless field. The IUWVN course is a component of the CCNP-Wireless curriculum. The IUWVN course is designed to give students a firm understanding of how to integrate VoWLAN services into the WLAN and be able to implement QoS, MPLS, and high-bandwidth applications into the wireless network. The IUWVN training class reinforces the instruction by providing students with hands-on labs.
