How to certify
The SRA certification requires candidates to pass eight multiple-choice exams (seven mandatory + one elective) and a 7-hour practical lab exam. Candidates are only required to take the IS-IS Routing Protocol exam (4A0-112) or OSPF Routing Protocol exam (4A0-114). You must complete all the mandatory multiple-choice exams before you can challenge the lab exam.
Candidates also have the option to write the SRA Composite Exam instead of the following four written exams (4A0-102, 4A0-105, 4A0-106, and 4A0-107).
