2000-07-30 Thread Annlee Hines

The NNCSS for the Passport 7000 was 100 question (plus #1 are you ready to
take the test and #2 do you accept the NDA--total =102, 100 real questions).
Some were multiple choice, some T/F--and those aren't necessarily easy
(anything wrong makes it false, even if 9/10 of it is true). Radio button
questions have only one answer, check boxes have >1 possible...but not
necessarily >1 correct answer. There are no fill in the blank. Passing is
80. The question difficulty is more than MS, maybe a little less than the 2
Cisco exams I've sat (CCNA and CCDA). The questions were by and large
straightforward, no subtle little tricky phrasings. Some questions require
you to understand a topology diagram--what's wrong with the addressing
scheme, why can't A communicate with B, etc.

I can't think of any more general info--specifics are out of bounds, of
course.

Not speaking officially for Nortel here, but I have been involved in 
developing one certification exam so far, although the particular 
product was cancelled.  I am involved in internal conversations about 
the direction and value of certifications.

At least for the one that I worked on, which was product-oriented 
(that may change) and a first-level design certification for carrier 
presales, the majority of people that wrote and discussed questions 
were definitely technical.  There was an education/certification 
manager concerned with quality, a tech writer, and about six or so 
experts including presales SEs, postsales support at a very senior 
level (think Cisco NSA with some research of their own), and product 
architecture (me).

I've informally discussed with Paul, and started to bring up in 
Nortel, the idea of adding a Nortel track to the site.  Nothing 
definite yet, but I certainly would like to assess the level of 
interest.

Design certifications at Nortel, especially the third-level 
architect, are rather different than Cisco's model.  They rely less 
on computer-administered exams and more on a model such as that of 
medical specialty certification -- presenting case studies of real 
networks you have built, and then an open-book design that will be 
evaluated by a panel of experts.

I can't get into too much detail, but Nortel is working internally to 
make its certification process even smoother. It does appear that 
there's a corporate style of helping the certification candidate, not 
tormenting them unnecessarily.

If you haven't anything to say concerning my question just ignore it, or you

sorta kinda, I guess. The list can judge.

Your concerns being the inability to search Nortel's site and find 
http://www.nortelnetworks.com/servsup/certification/framework.html
perhaps?  And that there are multiple exams involved in NNCDS, so 
there is no simple answer to your question?

Hint:  Nortel does expect certified people to be able to do basic web searches.

Oh...you'll also find Nortel offers a good deal of free study 
material for its basic certifications.

>Sorry again guys to discuss something off topic.

Let me get this straight. You posted a question that you said is off 
topic, dealing with Nortel. A senior manager at Nortel answered you. 
You flamed for the answer not being on topic.

What would have been on topic from your perspective?  Cisco's 
analysis of Nortel exams?

Re: Off topic Nortel Certifications

2000-07-30 Thread james

Hi John,

I'm posting this to the group for others that have the same question.

There is no specific exam for the Nortel NNCDS.  Rather you need to do one
of the core technology exam  for the NNCSS and then  do the Nortel web based
exams from home ( or elsewhere)  to fullfill the other requirements.  See
http://www12.nortelnetworks.com/training2/certification/nncds.html for more
info.

The Nortel design exam is for the next level of certification, the NNCDE (
design expert). To get that you need to do the NNCDS, plus:  one advanced
exam, one more core technology exam  and the design exam.
See http://www12.nortelnetworks.com/training2/certification/nncde.html for
more info on that one.  So if you mean you were planning to write the design
expert exam 920-021 ( Network Design Essentials for Routers and Switches)
you would not be certified as anything.  Just a heads up.

Let me tell you something more, the technicality is never a problem you can

maybe of both of you but I can gain it, it is just a matter of time and at

And no Howard, I didn't want Cisco's analysis of Nortel exams?

Because you made public the fact that I replied to you in private, I would
just like to let everyone know exactly what that private reply was:

Begin quote:
You could do a lot worse than listen to Howard. Really.

Idle curiosity, what do you think Howard should have said? What is the
problem you are trying to start?
End quote

I responded to you privately, because you flamed a respected and revered
individual publicly. Anything you have stated in your response below applies
all the more to yourself.

Sir, you have demonstrated an incredible lack of maturity, not to mention
self-righteousness.

As to whether I or anyone else "deserve any answere"  I suggest that
personality issues and personal style aside, it is well known among those
who have spent any time on this list who at least tries to ADD value.

Re: Etiquette: WAS: Off topic Nortel Certifications

This is tiring. Everyone on the list deserves respect. No one deserves to be 
flamed. There are no people more or less entitled to break the rules or to 
enforce the ettiquette save the list proctor. I think if there are 
exceptional and more experienced people here rather than criticize people 
for lazy or unperceptive questions why not set a good example and show them 
how to ask good and worthwhile ones?

There is no one more or less entitled to do commercial things and to promote 
for profit things either. No one earns the right to be above the rules that 
apply to everyone.
