Certified Data Centre Professional
Description
With few exceptions, enterprises today rely on IT for the delivery of business-critical services – often directly to the end consumer. It is therefore vital that the mission-critical data centre is designed, maintained and operated with high-availability and efficiency in mind. However, the fact is most data centres do not meet the full availability, capacity, safety or efficiency requirements that are often demanded. The ever-changing technologies put even more pressure on data centre managers along with the faster pace at which these changes are required. The CDCP® course is a 2-day course. It designed to expose participants to the key components of the data centre. It will address how to setup and improve key aspects such as power, cooling, security, cabling, safety, etc, to ensure a high available data centre. It will also address key operations and maintenance aspects.
Roadmap
Delivery Structure and Methods
The CDCP® course is lectured by an EPI Certified Instructor using a combination of lectures and question-and-answer sessions to discuss participants’ specific needs and challenges experienced in their own data centre environments.Participants are able to tap into the extensive experience of the trainer enabling them to validate and improve their own environments thus adding tremendous business value. CDCP® course is available in the following delivery methods:
• ILT – Instructor Led Training
• VILT – Virtual ILT
• TOD – Training On Demand
Examination
The exam is a 60-minute closed book exam, with 40 multiple-choice questions. The candidate requires a minimum of 27 correct answers to pass the exam.
Certification
Candidates with a desire to become a data centre expert are recommended to take the CDCE® course. CDCE® prepares participants to manage a project which covers scope, plan, design, implement, and retire or move a mission critical data centre up to the highest redundancy level. CDCE® builds upon knowledge gained in CDCP® and CDCS® courses. Participants who pass the exam will join the industries’ elite data centre project design experts. Participants must possess a valid CDCS® certificate for admission to the CDCE® course.
Recommended Next Course
To further extend your skills, we recommend the CDFOM® and CDCS® courses. CDFOM® addresses the full data centre operations management. CDCS® addresses advance design/build knowledge.
