Introduction

Cisco certifications are highly valued in the IT industry, and maintaining them requires ongoing professional development. Two key terms often confuse professionals: Cisco CE Points and Cisco CLC Points. While both relate to Cisco training and certifications, they serve distinct purposes. In this blog post, we’ll clarify the difference between these two points systems and explain how they contribute to your career growth.

Understanding Cisco CE Points (Continuing Education Points)

Cisco CE Points, also known as Continuing Education (CE) credits, are essential for maintaining your Cisco certifications. These points are earned by completing approved training courses, attending Cisco Live events, or participating in other qualifying activities.

Key characteristics of CE Points:

a. Purpose: Used for recertification to validate your expertise.
b. Acquisition: Earned through training, events, and other qualifying activities.
c. Value: Required to renew Cisco certifications.

To track your Cisco CE Points and manage your certifications,

Understanding Cisco CLC Points (Cisco Learning Credits)

Cisco CLC Points, or Cisco Learning Credits, represent prepaid training funds. Companies often purchase CLC points in bulk to provide their employees with access to Cisco training resources.

Key characteristics of CLC Points:

a. Purpose: Used to purchase Cisco training courses, exams, and other learning materials.
b. Acquisition: Purchased by companies in bulk.
Value: Represents a monetary value that can be redeemed for training.

To manage your Cisco Learning Credits (CLC points),
you would typically need to access your company’s internal training portal or system. If you are unsure about how to access this, contact your company’s IT or HR department for assistance. or visit https://learningcredit.cloudapps.cisco.com/
