For CCIE candidates who are going to attend Narbik bootcamp, Narbik will publish V2.0 of his famous workbook.  He will be here in Malaysia on 1 June to 5 June 2009.  I will update his class in my blog.

Below is Eman article about Narbik V2.0 workbook and his new workbook.

Occasionally while we are working on our daily grind we make friends with the people we deal with professionally. I have developed a strong respect for Narbik and I think we will become better friends as we work together to spread the gospel on CCIEs as a career track. I have discovered that Narbik travels to many more places than I do and my intention is to try and catch up to him. As far as individuals go who offer training internationally in support of preparing CCIEs not just for the lab but for life, he leads the pack. I was on the phone with him this past week. I was catching up with him and he shared a little secret with me. So I decided to tell everyone about it! I can keep secrets so don’t think I am a gab or anything but I am making him talk. So here are the notes from my interview with him.

Q: Narbik you have just returned to the USA from travels abroad. You have been working on a project you call Version two. What is version two?

A: Version 2.0 is by far the most complete and relevant work book and boot camp. We combined the existing “Advanced CCIE R&S Work Book” and “Boot Camp” work book (Which is what the students get when they attend our boot camp) and sell it as the new version 2.0. This will help students that can NOT attend the boot camp.

Currently 68 percent of our students that take our boot camp and our recommendations pass on their first attempt, the students can now purchase the new “Advanced CCIE R&S Work Book version 2.0” and they should have similar success.

BUT as far as the NEW boot camp 2.0, well I have added unbelievable amount of material to the new boot camp 2.0 work book and lectures. The idea is that if I add everything possible to my lectures and the new boot camp work book, then, what can they ask? They can NOT come up with a new command for the lab exam?

Q: So you have decided to launch Version Two with a guarantee I have never heard of in the industry. 80%?

A: Yes I know, look……this is what the students get when they attend our boot camps:

Cisco to Introduce CCNP Wireless Certification in September, 2009

Recognizing the growing demand for wireless professionals responsible for the design, implementation, security, and operation of wireless networks and mobility infrastructures, Cisco will release its CCNP Wireless certification this September, 2009.
CCNP Wireless is a professional level certification, which serves as the next step for individuals who have completed their CCNA Wireless certification and are interested in advancing their career in Cisco wireless technologies.
The wireless network continues to grow in part, because of the additional productivity that it brings to the world as a whole. Properly trained and certified individuals are needed to make wireless networks secure, cost-effective, and reliable. CCNP Wireless certification recognizes this growth, and acknowledges advanced level skills and knowledge in Cisco wireless networking.
A formal announcement of the CCNP Wireless certification is scheduled to be made at the Cisco Live! event, June, 2009, in San Francisco, California. Watch for more details in the coming months.

Mobile CCIE Lab Now Available for CCIE R&S Exam in Singapore

I received this news from Cisco learning which may be interest for some potential candidate taking their CCIE R&S.

To address the urgent need for certified IT professionals in emerging markets, and to offer more convenient testing, Cisco has developed the Mobile CCIE Lab for qualified candidates who are ready to take their CCIE Routing and Switching exam.

Since you have passed the written exam already, we encourage you to take advantage of the Mobile Lab scheduled in Singapore from June 8th-12th, 2009. The CCIE Mobile Testing lab will allow qualified candidates to more easily and quickly take the exam, reducing the waiting time, effort, and costs accrued by having to travel to take the exam.  The eight-hour lab exam tests your ability to configure actual equipment and get the network running in a timed test situation.

The Cisco CCIE Routing and Switching certification is the highest level of achievement for network professionals. Less than 3 percent of all Cisco certified professionals earn their CCIE certification.

Click here to register for the CCIE Routing and Switching lab exam in Singapore. Space is limited to 30 students.

Out of the 30 seats offer, 3 seats left as of 3 March 2009.  Since there are another 5 days left before payment due I believe some seats will be release soon.

Eman and Narbik Join Forces

by Eman

There are many things a Network Engineer should consider when making career choices. First is one that many have already completed: the decision to gain certification as a CCIE. What happens next is often not as well considered or planned. With the high global demand for CCIE services, it is important to make the right decisions. A number of things are involved in the preparation for the next steps: items such as resumes and cover letters, salary negotiations and offer letters, immigration and visas, global financial issues, and avoiding pitfalls and dirty tricks (e.g., CCIE numbers used as collateral). There is no better person to receive CCIE career advice from than Eman.

Narbik has written the book, quite literally, on CCIE R&S training and traveled the world to prepare his students for the CCIE lab. His students are taught how to learn what they need to know and the skills necessary to succeed as a CCIE after the lab, not just trained to pass a test. Narbik has left an indelible mark on the industry. In fact, there is probably no CCIE trainer that has received more praise on the web than Narbik.

The New CCNAs

The network landscape as we know it today is evolving dramatically, and demand for individuals with knowledge to plan, build, and run sophisticated converged networks has outpaced the IT talent supply worldwide. Companies need a workforce of highly skilled professionals competent in the technologies upon which the network infrastructure is built.

On June 24, 2008, Cisco introduced the CCNA Security, CCNA Voice, and CCNA Wireless concentrations–the smart way for individuals to establish a deeper level of expertise in these three important areas of network technology administration.

Built upon Cisco’s most popular career certification—CCNA—these new concentrations are relevant, role-based, and designed with the growing knowledge requirements of IT professionals and organizations in mind. These highly specialized associate-level concentrations represent areas of rapid development in technology convergence that reflect today’s sophisticated network environment. They will also soon be required prerequisites for professional-level credentials in security (CCSP), voice (CCVP), and wireless.
IT professionals wishing to broaden or specialize their skills to further differentiate themselves in the marketplace will find these concentrations a valuable addition to their knowledge arsenal.
According to the recent Forrester Consulting study conducted on behalf of Cisco, there is a pervasive need for stronger networking skills across multiple functional areas within IT organizations now and in the future:

• Dedicated security roles are expected to exist in 80% of the companies studied within five years, while today only 46% of the surveyed companies have such a role.
• Of the IT managers surveyed, 69% expect to have a dedicated voice specialist role within their IT organization within five years; only 40% of respondents have them today.
• One-third of the global companies surveyed currently have a dedicated wireless role, a figure expected to double to 66% over the next five years.

Companies need a workforce of highly skilled professionals competent in the technologies that drive network infrastructure and with the knowledge and tools to be productive.  To meet this challenge, Cisco is introducing a revolutionary enhancement to its award winning career certification program that will provide current and future networking professionals with a lifecycle of learning blueprint for career advancement.
Introducing CCNA Security, CCNA Wireless and CCNA Voice concentrations from Cisco, the smart way for individuals to gain expertise in Cisco network technologies. CCNA concentrations are relevant, role based certifications designed with today’s IT professional in mind.  Designed to build upon Cisco’s most popular career certification CCNA, these highly specialized; associate level concentrations offer individuals a career stepping stone in the converged technologies that make up today’s sophisticated network. In addition, IT professionals wishing to broaden or add specialized skills to their technology expertise while differentiating themselves in the marketplace will find these specializations a valuable addition.

Specialized Training, Unlimited Opportunity

While Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) remains the certification of choice for individuals who want to demonstrate their solid foundation in core routing and switching skills, the new CCNA Wireless, CCNA Voice and CCNA Security certifications build on core CCNA skills and provide a clear path for individuals to prepare for a specialized job role in wireless, security or voice technologies. In addition, these new CCNA
concentrations represent the first step for individuals interested in a career in Voice, Security, and Wireless technologies and serve as prerequisites for Cisco professional level certifications including CCVP and CCSP.

CCNA Voice validates skills in VoIP technologies such as IP
PBX, IP telephony, handset, call control, and voicemail
solutions. Candidates also get exposure to the Cisco Unified
Communications architecture and design covering mobility, presence,
and TelePresence applications.

CCNA Security validates a candidate’s skills including troubleshooting
and monitoring of Cisco network devices to maintain integrity,
confidentiality and availability of data.

CCNA Wireless validates candidate’s skills in the configuration,
implementation and support of wireless LANs, specifically those
networks using Cisco equipment.

These new CCNA concentrations provide a stepping stone for individuals who want to enhance their skill set and prepare for new roles managing converged networks

The Value of CCNA Concentrations

CCNA concentrations enable individuals to distinguish themselves in the highly competitive world of IT networking. These better-prepared employees can help employers reduce business risk, improve productivity, and maximize technology investments. Find out more today at need www.cisco.com/learnnetspace.com
