Re: learning facilities
Hi If I had to opt from the list, I would go for BCMSN, because what you gain from the class will be more in this courese. This involve concepts and technology which you need to understand, that agin will help in CIT exam. BCRAN is the easiest exam of the group and for CIT one need to sit and study. This test involves more of commands, test equipments etc., one need to put in a lot of time in self study anyway. This is my point of view. Hope this helps.

RE: learning facilities
Top for me would be Mentor Technologies because many of their instructors are on staff as opposed to being contractors. They as a group have authored several books that we all use. They have a long history of involvement with Cisco. They even wrote some of the IOS. I took both the BCMSN and BSCN with them at their NYC office. Second choice would be Global Knowledge because I have taken two courses from them (when ARG) and felt that the instructors were excellent. Courses were ICRC and Campus ATM. ICRC was in a rented facility (OpreyLand, Tennessee). ATM at the GK facility in North Carolina. I cannot comment on any of the other Training Partners. -Original Message- From: Lopez, Robert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 05, 2001 11:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: learning facilities Hello, If you were given the opportunity to choose your classes for BCMSN, BCRAN and CIT, which training facility would rank at the top.

RE: learning facilities
I have only taken courses from Mentor Tech (previously Chesapeake Consultants) and I have to say, they are excellent, both in their coverage of the materials and in the knowledge of the proctors.

Re: learning facilities
The best training I have gotten from Cisco came from Certification Solution. www.certificationsolution.com The worst we as a tech support group have attended lately has been Global Knowledge who seems to be going way down hill. Their classes seem to be getting smaller, their instructors seem to be having less experience and the equipment per student is getting less and has to be shared. Those are the only two though that I have personally attended. Because of the bad feedback from Global Knowledge we here at Excite IT are all booking classes through CS since they are cheaper, give the test vouchers and you get your own equipment to use(Which helps big time). Hope this helps.

Lopez Network Planning Ann Arbor Data Center Pfizer Global Research Development Phone 734-622-3948 Fax 734-622-1690 Well, it needs to be clear what is "facility" and what is "instructor." There's no way that a traveling lab set up in a hotel or conference center will have the same convenience as a permanent training lab. In my experience, while onsite private courses for particular customers may allow special customization and content relevance, the facilities tend to be even worse than hotels. My experience with MCI facilities, for example, have been...interesting. Atlanta: Try setting up a 12 router lab in a classroom that has one electrical outlet. Not circuit. Not even duplex receptacle. Outlet. Chicago: Long, skinny meeting room that was too narrow to let me stand next to the LCD projector. While I left Geotrain before the GKN merger, their permanent facilities were decent. Mentor Labs and ARS have reasonable ones I've been in. _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
