Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) Written

If designing, configuring and troubleshooting networks is already part of your week, this is the matching credential. Common job titles are Network Engineer, Network Administrator, NOC Engineer and Network Architect. We run design reviews and failure analysis rather than feature recall.

It tests designing, configuring and troubleshooting networks: addressing and routing, switching and segmentation and fault isolation under time pressure. The objective list Cisco publishes is followed in order, not paraphrased.

The listed fee is USD 450, or USD 405 with WebAsha's 10% discounted voucher. Pricing is Cisco's to set and moves with region and currency — we confirm today's figure before you pay.

Book it under code 400-007. Quote it when booking — Cisco runs several exams with similar names and the code is what guarantees you sit the right one.

Cisco owns the format, length and pass mark, and changes them between revisions. We read the current figures off the official page with you before you book.

Cisco states any formal requirement on the official exam page, and it changes between revisions. More usefully: can you do addressing and routing, switching and segmentation and fault isolation under time pressure without help? If not, we will suggest a lower rung first.

Preparation time tracks your existing experience of designing, configuring and troubleshooting networks. Rather than quoting a number that would not apply to you, we measure your practice results and advise when you are genuinely ready.

Teaching is live, and your lab stays available between sessions. Watching someone else run routing, switching and troubleshooting labs does not transfer the skill.

Yes — exam-style questions plus routing, switching and troubleshooting labs, drawn from the published objectives. Results come back per objective, which keeps revision honest.

Whether a free retake applies is Cisco's policy, and it varies by certification. Check the official policy before booking. On our side you keep lab access and get a revision plan built from the score breakdown.

Cisco decides how long the credential stays current, and revises that policy periodically. Confirm the current terms on the official certification page — we flag the renewal path at booking so it does not surprise you years later.

Cisco controls which delivery modes are available for this exam. We confirm which options are open to you in your country when the voucher is issued.

Yes — official Cisco vouchers, and we help you redeem and schedule them. We do not sell leaked or real exam questions — that breaches Cisco's certification policy and puts your credential at risk.

Employers list it against Network Engineer, Network Administrator, NOC Engineer and Network Architect. Hiring managers read it as evidence you can be left with addressing and routing, switching and segmentation and fault isolation under time pressure.

Because in networking, one bad route takes a site offline. Preparation for Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) Written is built around designing, configuring and troubleshooting networks, so the practice stays useful after the certificate arrives.
