New Certifications: Next Gen Firewall Engineer and Network Security Professional

So is the Next Gen Firewall essentially the old PCNSE with a few new topics and Network Security Professional similar for the old PCNSA?

And if so can we mostly use corresponding CBT learning for those respective exams?

The Learning Center (formerly Beacon) @ https://learn.paloaltonetworks.com/ has a NGFW Engineer course that I heard mapped to the exam well.

Thanks,
