My 2p OK,
Why should Cisco determine how many CCIE's are "required" ?
If they mean for themselves, then fine. If they are cutting back on staff and
don't need as many CCIEs then thats their call. But if they are looking to
produce the same volume of kit, then there will be the same volume of kit in
the industry, and hence the same number of people to design, install, support
etc...
