Course Description
Course Overview
The Implementing and Operating Cisco Collaboration Core Technologies (CLCOR) course, specifically the 350-801 exam, focuses on providing participants with the knowledge and skills to implement and operate core collaboration technologies in Cisco collaboration networks. This course is designed for network professionals who are responsible for implementing and managing collaboration solutions using Cisco technologies. The course covers topics such as collaboration architecture, endpoints, call control, messaging, conferencing, and quality of service (QoS).
Prerequisites
To enroll in the CLCOR 350-801 course, participants should have a solid understanding of networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, routing, and switching technologies. Familiarity with Cisco networking technologies and a basic understanding of collaboration concepts and technologies are recommended. It is beneficial to have completed the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification or possess equivalent knowledge.
Methodology
The CLCOR 350-801 course employs a blended learning approach, combining theoretical concepts with practical hands-on labs and interactive discussions. The course materials are delivered through instructor-led lectures, demonstrations, and real-world scenarios. Participants will engage in hands-on lab exercises and simulation tools to practice and reinforce their understanding of the course material.
