Solutions Administrator (CWSA)
Pearson
VUE Certification Exam Number CWSA-101
Course Summary
Duration: 4 days, Classroom or Virtual Live
Online
Prerequisites: Good to have but not required:
Basic networking knowledge, including OSI model
and IP subnetting
Introduction
While no wireless training can cover every
single wireless technology in use today, it is
important for wireless professionals to grasp
the most frequently used wireless solutions in
organizations. The Enterprise Wireless Solutions
Administration course and associated
certification exam will ensure candidates know
several common wireless solutions and prove
their knowledge through certification. The
Certified Wireless Solutions Administrator (CWSA)
certification is built upon two decades of
historic quality in WLAN (802.11) training and
certifications and begins the extension of CWNP
offerings into the non-802.11 wireless
technologies.
When one passes the CWSA exam, they earn the
CWSA certification and credit towards the CWSE
certification should they choose to pursue it.
The Certified Wireless Solutions Administrator (CWSA)
implements, administers and troubleshoots
technologies that heavily rely upon, or directly
integrate with, wireless systems in enterprise,
government, and manufacturing environments. This
individual is able to install, customize, and
coordinate appropriate solutions to meet an
organization’s requirements and constraints.
