Industry Endorsed and Standards-Based

With more than 4,000 CTP-certified individuals worldwide, the CTP certification continues to lead the way in workforce readiness and industry-approved learning development.

  • Designed and endorsed by industry leaders – As the official convergence certification program of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA), the CTP certification represents the development efforts of leading industry manufacturers worldwide, including Avaya, Inter-Tel and Toshiba. These industry leaders understand the critical need for a broad-based certification to serve as a foundation for their vendor-specific learning programs.
  • Vendor-neutral and standards-based – As customer needs and technology advancements continue to evolve, a proven standards-based learning approach is needed to ensure that personnel have a comprehensive view of the methods, concepts and best practices of a single converged network.

The CTP Exam

The CTP certification exam validates core knowledge of convergence industry standards and protocols. It is earned by passing a high-stakes, computer-based proctored exam consisting of 65 multiple choice questions.

The CTP certification differs from the CCNT (Certified in Convergent Network Technologies) certification, which is an un-proctored, open-book program that serves as an entry-level introduction to convergence technologies. It is recommended that an individual has attained the knowledge level of CCNT before preparing for the CTP exam or have a minimum of 18-24 months of experience in all three subject areas to take and pass the CTP exam.
