CCIE Routing and Switching Prep Boot Camp

Overview:

This intensive, hands-on course is the first in our curriculum designed specifically to prepare you for the CCIE Routing and Switching Lab Exam. Taught by CCIE-certified instructors, this course will expose you to network situations you're likely to experience on the exam. You'll learn the technologies, become familiar with Cisco's testing techniques, and discover our unique methodology for preparing for the exam. Assess your strengths and weaknesses by testing your knowledge on exam topics such as advanced 3550 and 3560 configurations, OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, RIPv2, redistribution, and route filtering. Since this course does not cover introductory material, you should have CCNP-level knowledge of the topics covered, and you should have passed the CCIE Routing and Switching Written Exam 350-001.

We use a combination of lecture, chalk talk, one-on-one mentoring, and hands-on labs to create a unique experience. Students do not share any equipment. Instead, you will have access to your own pod where you'll perform two complete mock labs that you won't find with any other training provider. Further, you'll have 24-hour access to the lab equipment until 11:52 PM EST the following Sunday.

Boot Camp Hours
Class begins each day at 8:30 AM and runs at least ten hours, sometimes late into the evening. In a typical Boot Camp, it is not uncommon for some students to remain past 8:30 PM, depending upon the number and experience of the students.

Register for both our CCIE: R&S Prep Boot Camp and CCIE: R&S Mock Labs Boot Camp at the same time and save $1,000.
