MEF is introducing an SDN/NFV professional certification developed in collaboration with the Linux Foundation and ETSI.
The certification validates a professional’s knowledge, skills, and abilities in the domains of software-defined networking and network functions virtualization.
MEF now offers three certifications as part of a comprehensive Professional Certification Framework.

Individuals who obtain all three of these certifications qualify for the coveted MEF Network Expert certification.
“The MEF-SDN/NFV certification is the newest in a planned family of essential, professional, expert, and master level certifications that comprise the MEF Professional Certification Framework,” said Nan Chen, President, MEF. “Together, these certifications – and the training that programs that underpin them – aim to help service providers and technology companies develop and maintain highly skilled professional workforces in an era of rapid innovation.”
