Where can I study the CCENT course in Durban. Anyone please share information if you've studied. I checked out a few colleges like kib I'm the Umhlanga area and the course is 20k even if that's bad there is a college called the noble prog and the CCNA certification course is 127k .. That is is rediculous.

Thank you
 
Book and pay for your exam online in advanced, so that you have a goal to work towards.
Self study. Been doing this method for 10 years now.
Will never pay for an IT course again from a college type institution.

If there is something you dont understand reach out on here or Reddit:

All of these courses are a waste of money.
Get some videos, read the books, play around on devices and write the exam.
Most of the people giving the courses go through slides and then give very useless labs.
You simply cannot absorb all you need in that week.

True. There isn't a course that prepares you for the exam.

That is where brsindumps are invaluable.

... Meh, not even going to try and escape the flaming hordes of network and system "engineers" anymore.

You are part of the reason why its impossible to find good engineers anymore.

Everyone has every certificate ever made but no one can actually do the job.

Sad.

Brain dumps give a fraudulent representation of your knowledge and understanding of the subject matter and devalue the certification for the real network people.

No it is not. It is a useful study aid, even for experienced network engineers. You are referring to parrot-learners, people who absorb questions and answers, without understanding why this or that is the correct answer.

This, study material, labs, equipment to work with all form part of preparing for certification. These certs are turning into a money making racket, and it helps to be prepared.

Years of experience does not prepare you for Cisco or Nokia's questions that are purely product placement and frankly, ads.

I do not totally disagree, I've commented on another post.
 
Busy studying for the CCNA , Note: Have plenty of years experience in all aspects for technical , but dont have the ccna cert.Anyway ive been studying for +- 1 year for the cert (I know i should have got the cert by now :X3: but dont want to "cheat" by using braindumps ).Best way to study for ccna is to use a network emulator such as GNS3.Below is an example of 1 of my test network topologies.If you can deploy all technologies in a simulation environment without referring back to the book then you are ready ;)

100% true. That, and also top level engineers tend to work for large vendors that render professional services. (DD, Altron, etc. Or even for the OEMs themselves) and a prospective employer is unlikely to be able to afford them.

@Jade @ Absolute Hosting , will disagree on "Top Level Engineers" at places like DD :ROFL:

Yes, labs and simulators are among the best tools.

What I recall from doing MCSE many many moons ago in the previous millennium, is that even months of classroom training and study material doesn't prepare you for an exam.

A lot of it is how to interpret the question. Ons ander is correct, but the Cisco/Microsoft/etc way is the MOST correct. With networking, that could even lead to favouring a vendor proprietary technology, where standards based is arguably the best way to go.

There I blame HR and account managers as well :ROFL:

but dont places like DD only employ people with certs ? So the question is how many of those certificate people that are employed at the companies are paper ccna's ?
