RE: CCDP to CCIE

[Chuck Larrieu]

you can study for the CCIE and spend the next....year? or so reading and outlining and thinking and then attempt the written. At that point you will have attained the CCIE written.   OR   you can study for the various CCNP tests, outline, read, pass, and in a few months time have a CCNP, and then spend a month or two building on that base to attempt the written.   Seems to me you do the reading no matter which path you take.   question is, what do you want to show for it, to measure your progress, to act as a roadmap?   Chuck -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of nsamuel Sent: Wednesday, August 09, 2000 4:15 AM To: Cisco Group Study Subject: CCDP to CCIE Looking for opinions on how much does the CCDP track help towards the CCIE exam, I am a CCNP at the moment and wanted to go for the big one, but feel I am not ready. I was toying with the CCDP title but, not sure it would be a benifit or just a side step towards the CCIE. Opinions please, is the CCDP worth the trip?     Nigel Samuel CCNA, CCNP, MCSE, CNE
