The CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum consists of four courses:
1) Introduction to Networks (ITN) is the first course in the Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum teaching students the architecture, structure, functions and components of the Internet and other computer networks. By the end of the course, students will be able to build simple LANs, perform basic configurations for routers and switches, and implement IP addressing schemes.
2) Routing and Switching Essentials is the second course in the CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum teaching students how to configure a router and a switch for basic functionality. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with RIPv1, RIPng, single-area and multi-area OSPF, virtual LANs, and inter-VLAN routing.
3) Scaling Networks is the third course in the CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum teaching students how to configure routers and switches for advanced functionality. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot routers and switches and resolve common issues with OSPF, EIGRP, and STP.
4) Connecting Networks is the fourth and final course in the CCNA Routing and Switching curriculum covering the WAN technologies and network services employed by converged applications in a complex network. By the end of this course, students will be able to configure and troubleshoot network devices and resolve common issues with data link protocols.

Here is an explanaton why the level of difficulty of ICND 1 & 2 has been raised
Cisco has evolved its associate-level certifications to align with changing industry job roles in routing and switching, and advanced technologies such as security, wireless, and voice. The certification formerly known as CCNA has evolved to a concentration and has been renamed CCNA Routing and Switching.
CCENT certification now becomes a foundational certification and replaces CCNA as the prerequisite for associate-level advanced technology certifications, including CCNA Security, CCNA Voice, CCNA Wireless, and CCNA SP Operations.
Q. Why did Cisco add so many new technical topics to the CCENT and CCNA Routing and Switching exams?
A. Many of Cisco’s global customers have repeatedly confirmed that they expect their CCNA-qualified employees to have a higher level of knowledge and skills when initially hired. To address this requirement, Cisco has shifted some of the topics previously featured in the ICND2 certification exam to the ICND1 certification exam. Students passing the ICND1 exam leading to CCENT certification will now have more knowledge and skills than with the previous exam. This also enables students to learn these topics in greater depth as they progress toward ICND2 certification exam.
