Cisco CCNA / CCNP Certification Exam: Attending A Video Boot Camp |
 |
|
When you're studying for the CCNA and CCNP exams, you've
got a lot of different choices when it comes to training.
One popular choice is choosing one of the many "boot
camps" and five-day in-person courses that are out there.
I've taught quite a few of these, and while many of them are
good, they do have drawbacks.
Of course, one is cost. Many employers are putting the brakes
on paying for CCNA and CCNP boot camps, and most candidates
can't afford to pay thousands of dollars for such a class.
Then you've got travel costs, meals, and having to possibly
burn your own vacation time to take the class. Add in time
away from your family and boot camps become impractical for
many CCNA / CCNP candidates.
Another issue is fatigue. I enjoy teaching week-long classes,
but let's face facts - whether you're training for the CCNA
or CCNP exams, you're going to get a lot of information thrown
at you in just a few days. You're going to be mentally and
physically exhausted at the end of the week, and that's when
some boot camps actually have you take the exam! You've got
to be refreshed and rested when you take the exam to have
your best chance of success.
How can you get the benefit of an experienced instructor
without paying thousands of dollars? By taking a Video Boot
Camp! There are some high-quality computer-based training
(CBT) courses out there, and these courses offer quite a few
advantages for the CCNA and CCNP candidate. These courses
run hundreds instead of thousands of dollars, and you can
train on your own schedule. It is important for you to make
and keep that schedule, but instead of spending thousands
of dollars and having to travel, you can get world-class CCNA
and CCNP training in the comfort of your own home.
By combining a high-quality CCNA or CCNP CBT or video boot
camp with a strong work ethic, you're on your way to passing
the exam and accelerating your career. Now get to work!
