[edit] Purpose
Specifically, the CNE training program is intended to train a system administrator on how to use management tools, perform server installations, manage the eDirectory, printing, allocate storage space, email and instant messaging services, and managing security.
[edit] Name
CNE originally stood for Certified Netware Engineer. When Unixware entered Novell's product range around 1993, it became Certified Novell Engineer.
[edit] Requirements
In contrast to a Certified Novell Administrator (CNA), a CNE must pass a series of tests to prove their readiness for the certification. A CNA must pass only a single test.
The Novell CNE training provides knowledge and skills implementing a sometimes wide variety of Novell (NetWare) products.
[edit] Recognition
Although considered a good starting point in the IT industry, despite some changes in the overall use of the software,[1] the CNE Certificate is sometimes criticized as not providing recipients with any hands on experience.[2]
[edit] Advancement
Novell also has advancements of this certification including:
- MCNE - Master Certified Novell Engineer - additional exam topics.
- CNI - Certified Novell Instructor - requiring higher exam point to pass, together with assessed presentation skills.
In addition, a certain amount of continuing education is required in order for certificate holders to maintain their skills and certification.[2]
