About this course

What the Cisco 300-115: CCNP SWITCH – Routing and Switching course covers

Cisco 300-115: CCNP SWITCH – Routing and Switching is taught entirely online, so there is nothing to attend and no start date to wait for. It is built as 7 modules, so there is an obvious place to stop each time. The 12 months of access matter more than they sound: refresher reading before an inspection or an appraisal is free.

What it covers: Plan And Design, Switch Configuration, IP Configuration and STP And RTP. 3 more modules follow those, all named on the Modules tab.

Nothing is required to enrol, and the content is aimed at the job rather than at a syllabus. We list 12 Networking & Cisco courses, of which 7 sit at Professional development. There is a certificate of completion at the end, available from your account. It is proof you covered the material, not a regulated qualification.

Worth knowing before you buy: And to be plain about it: there is no CPD accreditation on this course, so buy something accredited if that is what has been asked of you.

Buyer guide

Is this the right course for you?

Best fit

Cisco 300-115: CCNP SWITCH – Routing and Switching is a sensible shortlist choice when you want a structured route through the published syllabus rather than a general overview of the whole subject. Its 7-module plan starts with Plan And Design and Switch Configuration, which gives you a clear indication of the assumed starting point. That shape is likely to be most useful for network technicians and IT staff working towards a networking exam whose training need matches those topics. It is a weaker fit if you only need one isolated skill, or if an employer has specified a different standard, awarding body or practical assessment. Before buying, compare that requirement with the final modules on HSRP, VRRP, GLBP and Course Review as well as the course title.

How to use the syllabus

Treat the module list as a study plan, not just a contents page. Begin with Plan And Design and Switch Configuration and note any terms or processes you need to revisit. Around the middle, STP And RTP acts as a useful checkpoint: if you can explain that material without looking back, move on; if not, repeat the preceding section before adding more. The later work on HSRP, VRRP, GLBP and Course Review is where you can test whether the earlier ideas connect. After each block, write a short example from your own work or a realistic scenario. That simple retrieval step makes self-paced learning more useful than clicking straight through to completion.

Check before enrolling

The provider gives no fixed study-hour estimate, so use the module count to plan several shorter sessions rather than assuming it can be completed in one sitting. Access is listed for 12 months, so set a completion date comfortably before the login ends. A downloadable or printable completion certificate is described, but it records course completion rather than replacing a regulated qualification. No CPD accreditation is stated. That is fine for skills development, but not when a workplace policy specifically requires accredited training.
