To IPexpert's CCIE R&S Customers, For those of you that already own one or more of our R&S products, this email will describe the upgrade paths and options for you to get the new materials, just announced.
1. If you own the Workbook & Proctor Guide (version 9), you are entitled to free electronic access to the new Volume 1 and Volume 2 (includes Workbook, Proctor Guides and configuration files). 2. The cost to receive all of the books professionally printed and bound with protective covers is $199 plus shipping/handling. It is a ton of material. Seriously, like a whole tree. 3. Customers that own the Audio Boot Camp CDs will be entitled to free access to download the new Audio Boot Camp, which you will find in your Members Area when you login at IPexpert.com. The download will provide you with MP3 files of the lecture series, which you can import into your favorite media player, load on your iPod, etc. Good stuff. 4. Customers that own the Video on Demand Boot Camp DVDs can order this product. We will ship you a portable hard drive with the videos pre-loaded on it, viewable from the unit's media player. The cost is $200 plus shipping/handling for this option. We will not be able to stream these videos, due to the massive size (there is about 30 hours worth of video, recorded in 720p High-Definition format). If you have questions regarding your personal order history and purchase inquiries, please contact a Training Advisor directly, so as not to annoy the others on this list. ;-) Training Advisors are available here: - Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Phone: +1.810.326.1444 - Live Chat: www.IPexpert.com/chat Thanks! -- Matt Brooks Vice President - IPexpert, Inc.

Hopefully, > this email can help to clear up some of the confusion with the various > components included... > > First, let's begin with a quick comparison of the deliver model between the > previous Workbook and Proctor Guide offering and the new books. The > Workbooks we have produced in the past have essentially been two parts; the > first part being individual protocol- and technology-specific lab scenarios > and the second part combining technologies to build complex multi-protocol > labs. With our new delivery model, those two parts / concepts are now > represented by Volume 1 (the individual "Focus Labs") and Volume 2 > (Multi-Protocol Lab Challenges). That's why existing owners of the Workbook > / Proctor Guide get a FREE upgrade to receive the Vol. 1 and 2 materials > electronically! (If you don't have those files already, just contact a > Training Advisor at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and you will get yours > immediately.) > > Now, let's talk about the new Volume 3 materials. The Workbook itself > contains 10 newly-written "mock labs" that will really put your skills to > the test. Like the Volume 1 and 2 books, you will be able to reference the > accompanying "Proctor Guide" written explanations, which provide you with > insight and understanding of the lab, as told by the instructor that wrote > the lab. > > In previous years, we have received requests from our valued customers for > more detail in lab explanations, so we decided to answer that request in a > BIG way with the new Volume 3. All 10 mock labs are accompanying by not only > the Proctor Guide written explanations, but a video tutorial that is sure to > answer your every question. Each each lab's video tutorial, the instructor > spends up to 10 hours tediously walking you through every task and solution > involved in the lab, showing you the 'show' and 'debug' commands necessary > to fully validate the solution for the task. It is truly like sitting next > to our instructors and learning from them, one-on-one, as they teach you at > your own pace! > > Don't confuse those Volume 3 video tutorials with the "Video on Demand" > product, which is yet another separate component of the new Blended Learning > Solution. Scott just completed recording this new video lecture series > (completely re-written and produced from scratch), which has boiled down to > a full 15 hours worth of in-depth lectures covering the various lab > blueprint topics. In addition to the lecture, however, Scott also launches > into deep-dive exercises throughout the lectures to illustrate points, > reinforce your knowledge in core areas, and make fuzzy points crystal-clear > for you. There are more than 15 hours of these videos (on top of the 15 > hours of lectures!) all recorded in 720p High-Definition format. > > In contrast to the Volume 3 video tutorials described above, which are > specific to the Vol. 3 labs (likely to be tackled later in a candidate's > preparation path), the Video on Demand series is a valuable resource > throughout. > > The last component of the Blended Learning Solution is the Audio Boot Camp, > which is a simple one to describe. Taken from the final edit of the Video on > Demand lecture series described above, we separated the audio file (Scott's > discussions) and created MP3 modules. You are able to listen to these MP3s > through the media player included on the portable hard drive included with > the Blended Learning Solution or you can import them into your favorite > media player. By importing to iTunes, you can load the Audio Boot Camp > modules onto your iPod / iPhone / MP3 Player and take them with you > anywhere. This portability has made this a popular product over the years > for our customers that spend a lot of time commuting / traveling throughout > the week. > > So, that covers each component of the new product line.
