in CCNA & CCENT
Anyone have a link or can provide some stat as to how many CCNA's there are per Country,State,Prov.
I recieved my CCNA ID and I hope that number doesn't map to how many CCNA's there really are out there. 11 Million ?

j_a_s_o_n Member Posts: 75 ■■□□□□□□□□I was curious too and went poking around. You can see the number of CCIEs here:
CCIEs Worldwide - CCIE RESOURCES - Cisco Systems
But apparently Cisco won't give out the information on the other certs. There's a thread up on the learning network from mid last year here:
https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/message/28386#28386
Someone there said that the total number of certs is 1,000,000+ now. Take out the 20,000someodd CCIEs and you have around 980,000 to split among the other certs. -

And yer to be honest I never passed the CCNA to get a job, too many people walk out of a 5 week collage course with a CCNA for it to be taken seriously in job hunting.
It was for me just a step along the way to CCNP. I hope once i have a few of the CCNP exams on the card + my experince my CV will start to look enticing.
900,000 ish other Cisco certs around? make my few seem so insignifint... LOL- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Albert Einstein

Mate, I have 4+ years pure cisco experince, plus lots of experince in other fields and a number of other certifiates not in my profile here. And I still often fail to get interviews.- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Albert Einstein

Don't sweat it, just teasing
I think we are all in the same boat. I even got a CV company to make it "pretty" with all the buzz words in - still, the phone remains quiet.
