Help Assessing Effort Needed for Certifications

Oct 02, 2007 1 Replies

Hi,



I am trying to figure out if a bootcamp will be good enough to achieve cisco certifications. I have a masters in computer science and telecom, I have a good knowledge of telecom networks and signaling. I took some grad classes in tcp/ip routing and switching but did not have hands on configuring or troubleshooting routers and switches at work. I know the concepts and can compute logic.



I am looking at ccna and ccnp one shot. I saw some bootcamps that have a slow track (about a week for ccna and 4weeks for ccnp).



My question is:


Is it feasible for someone who knows the concepts but DID NOT have hands on to realistically get certified by attending theses bootcamps especially ccnp. I believe ccna should not be a big deal.



thanks



Regards

Hi Al,

Which country are you in?

Most training works but if it is a boot camp you will probably be expected to put a lot of effort in yourself because the boot camps are so intensive.
