Cisco
Training News – CCNP Changes
The
times, they are a changin’.
Bob Dylan knew what he was talking about with his classic
hit but he probably didn’t realize how well it applied to
certification training. Cisco
has announced some big changes for their CCNP program;
August 7th,
2003
will be the
last day to schedule Exam 640-604 (CCNP-Switching).
It is being retired and replaced with exam 643-811.
Before you start banging your head against the wall
worrying what this means for you, rest assured everything is
going to be fine. If
you are studying for this particular exam, you still have until
August 7th to schedule it and six weeks after that to
take the test. Once
you’ve passed, the exam will continue to be valid toward your
CCNP. You won't need to take the new exam.
You’re
also in a great position if you haven’t begun studying yet
because there’s plenty of time to prepare.
If the worst was to happen and you don’t find yourself
ready to take the exam before the deadline, you’re still okay.
The new exam will cover a majority of the material from
640-604 so you haven’t wasted your time.
Due
to the exam's pending retirement, we are offering video training for Exam
640-604 for only $49 - a $150 savings. There’s
still a lot of time left to prepare and with our offer below you have nothing to
lose.
With the changes coming on the CCNP exams, we want to make
sure that you are getting the best possible opportunity at
success so we’ve arranged for everyone who has bought our
640-604 training video package to be able to get the new Exam
643-811 videos (available in August) for $49.
This is a $199 value and the new release price will be
set at $99. If you
wait for the new release you’ll pay $99. If you get started now for
$49 and don’t get through the material in time you can
get the update for $49 - a true win-win.

CompTIA
Birthday
Can
you believe that the A+ certification is now 10 years-old?
CompTIA has come a long way in building awareness of the
quality of their programs. Microsoft
accepts A+ and either Network+
or Server+
certification as substitution for electives counting towards the
MCSA
credential.
Additionally, Security+ can now be used
toward the MCSA
and MCSE-Security designation.
The
A+ and Network+ videos are a great way to start your IT career
or to learn about computer components,
operating systems and home networks.
We can’t think of a better way to get educated on
everything from motherboards, IRQs and modems to TCP/IP,
disaster recovery and network protocols. These videos are a perfect way to entertain and
educate a high school or college student now that school
is out.
To
kick off the summer season, our 3-Day Sale
features selected CompTIA video packages at great discounts.

What's
New?
Summer
vacations may be on your mind but we’ve been busy with new
releases and enhancements. SQL
2000 Implementation and Design is now shipping with special new
release pricing. It
comes with the SQL Fundamentals videos and is also available as
a combo package with
SQL 2000
Administration.
Supplemental
reinforcement questions are available for all our MCSE
videos.
These new supplemental questions are the perfect complement to
the videos. It's the final step to the replacement of
classroom instruction. Now you have the classroom-style
training and the instructor quizzing you along the
way to make sure you're learning the material.
The
Supplemental Questions are subjected to the same level of scrutiny and technical
review as the videos. Priced at just 10% of the retail value of
the corresponding videos, the questions are an affordable way to
augment your learning experience.
We
now have a download service for your video purchases.
Save shipping charges and get your order faster than ever
via electronic delivery. International customers can use
the service to avoid our 15% customs surcharge. Just select
"Electronic Delivery" as your shipping method when you
check-out. (Please note that Electronic Delivery is not
feasible for dial-up or low-bandwidth connections.)
