SNIA certifications address the vendor-neutral baseline storage networking knowledge and skill that is vendor-neutral. SNIA certifications will prepare you to put the individual product nuances for each vendor into a context in the industry. To be successful in your career, it is necessary to understand how the storage products fit together in a multi-vendor environment.

SNIA Education provides the framework for a general understanding of storage networking concepts, troubleshooting, management and administration and architecture. The knowledge and skills the you receive from the vendor training and certification makes you better prepared to architect and deliver a full multi-vendor solution. So, SNIA certifications PLUS the select vendor Certifications give you the expertise to become a SNIA Storage Networking Expert (SCSN-E).
