Cisco folded its DevNet Associate certification into the core CCNA family and renamed it CCNA Automation. This course walks you through that shift step by step: Python fundamentals, Git-based version control, REST/NETCONF/RESTCONF APIs, YANG data models, and Ansible playbooks for Cisco infrastructure. Built for networking professionals as well as developers moving into network engineering, it combines mentor-led sessions, hands-on labs, and a capstone project so you walk away genuinely job-ready, not just exam-ready.
By the end of this CCNA Automation course, you will be able to:
This CCNA Automation online training takes you from scripting basics to full network programmability:
This CCNA Automation training for beginners and working professionals is built for:

Here's what makes igmGuru's CCNA Automation course worth your time:
The official certification is the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) Automation - the credential Cisco created when it rebranded and folded its DevNet Associate certification into the core CCNA family. To earn it, candidates pass a single exam: Automating Networks Using Cisco Platforms (200-901 CCNAAUTO) v1.1, a 120-minute exam covering software development, APIs, Cisco platforms, application deployment and security, infrastructure automation, and network fundamentals. igmGuru's CCNA Automation certification training is mapped to this exact blueprint, and learners also receive an igmGuru course completion certificate on finishing the program.
CCNA Automation (200-901 CCNAAUTO) is Cisco's rebranded DevNet Associate certification, focused on Python, APIs, and network programmability. CCNA (200-301) instead covers core routing, switching, and networking fundamentals - the two exams test different skill sets.
No. The course starts with Python fundamentals built specifically for network engineers, so no prior coding background is required.
It isn't compulsory, but having CCNA-level networking knowledge makes it easier to follow the automation concepts and labs.
The course runs for 35 hours, combining live instructor-led sessions with hands-on lab practice.
The exam code is 200-901 CCNAAUTO (v1.1), and it currently costs approximately USD 300, as per Cisco's official pricing.
Graduates typically move into roles like Network Automation Engineer, DevNet Engineer, Network Programmability Specialist, or Cloud Network Engineer.
Yes. On completing the training, igmGuru issues a course completion certificate recognized by employers, in addition to preparing you for the official Cisco exam.
