Passing the CCIE Lab Exam is not only an investment of your finances, but it is also an immense investment of your time. Throughout years of developing and delivering CCIE training programs, our expert authors and instructors found that the amount of time and money candidates spent on passing the CCIE Lab Exam was directly related to how accurately they could fill in the gaps in their knowledge.

The problem with traditional training models was that since every engineer's skill set was different, there was no clearly defined path that worked the same for everyone. Regardless of skill level or industry experience, each candidate was handed the same static set of workbooks, videos, and classes, and it was up to them to sort through it on their own, picking out what they needed.

For some candidates this method was successful, but for many more it was not, or at best was immensely expensive and time consuming. To solve this problem of the traditional training model, Internetwork Expert set out to develop a customized method of training that could be tailored to each individual candidate's skill set, allowing them to get the most out of their time and money. The answer, is CCIE 2.0.

CCIE 2.0 - The Next Generation:

The Internetwork Expert CCIE 2.0 Program is the next-generation framework for candidates who want a clearly defined and customized approach to obtaining the CCIE Routing & Switching certification. This program is targeted towards the serious candidate that is willing to invest both the time and effort to pass the CCIE lab and become a true Internetwork Expert.

How CCIE 2.0 Works:

The key differentiating factor of the Internetwork Expert CCIE 2.0 program from other offerings on the market, is that it constantly adapts to your changing skill level, with new customized recommendations occurring along the way. This core functionality of the program is based on our revolutionary new Student Assessment and Grading Engine - SAGE™ - and its ability to make continued recommendations on where to focus next in your preparation.

The First Step - Online Self-Assessment:

The CCIE 2.0 program starts with a brief online self-assessment where you rate your current knowledge level, based on the topics covered in the CCIE Routing & Switching Lab Exam.

Step Two - Hands-on Lab Assessment:

From the results of your self-assessment, a customized hands-on lab assessment is created to validate your skill level. Remote equipment access is provided for you to configure the lab assessment, followed up by a detailed performance report. The grading report compares where you thought you were to where you actually are, and based on this presents a learning path recommendation customized to your individual needs. The goal of this assessment process is to ensure that you spend your preparation time on the areas that you need to focus on most. The result is that you end up investing less time - and money - into your preparation.

Step Three and Beyond - Continued Interaction & Adaptive Assessments:

As you progress through the self-paced content recommendations, and interact with our authors, instructors, and community, continuing hands-on lab assessments are presented to you throughout the course of the program. The key point with the assessments is that they are adaptive, meaning that their content is based on your previous historical performance. These continuing adaptive assessments allow you to track your progress, and to ensure that you are not skipping over any technology areas in your preparation. From these results you will know when you need to fall back to the fundamentals, and when you are finally ready to tackle the beast, and pass the CCIE Lab Exam!

Content Delivery:

The CCIE Lab Exam is always progressing - so is our program. The Internetwork Expert CCIE 2.0 Program implements a revolutionary new perpetual product release model, which ensures that you always have the latest and most up-to-date content available for the lab exam. This means that you, the candidate, not only have access to the newest material on the market, but you don't have to wait months - or even years - between product updates.

Self-Paced Products:

Self-paced products are available in both online and physical formats. Online products are delivered in PDF and streaming video formats, and are constantly being incrementally updated. Physical product releases, such as printed workbooks or Class-on-Demand DVDs, are a "snapshot" in time of the content as it is evolving. As changes are made they are always available for free electronically, and new physical product releases can be ordered for a minimal production and shipping fee.

Instructor-Led Products:

The Internetwork Expert CCIE 2.0 Program incorporates the best portions of traditional brick-and-mortar instructor-led training, as well as state-of-the-art online classroom interaction.

With our traditional instructor-led classes, you, the candidate, have multiple 5-Day and 12-Day Bootcamp and Workshop classroom options to get away from your home and work environment, allowing you to focus 100% on your CCIE Lab Exam preparation.

With our online classroom options, such as the Open Lecture Series and Lab Meet-Ups, candidates can drop into a class session at any time to interact with our instructors in real-time. With multiple sessions scheduled each week, you, the candidate, always have an outlet for your questions over the lifetime of your preparation. Best of all, any session that you are unable to attend is immediately available in electronic Class-on-Demand format following the conclusion of the class.
