John,
I think that the CIT class would be a good choice for you given your
limitations. We used to send all of our engineers to the CIT class and
everyone liked the class and thought it was good. I do not know if your boss
would allow it or not, but Mentor Technologies BGP/OSPF workshop would also
be a good choice.
Regards,
David Wolsefer, CCIE #5858

My boss would like to send me to another class and I'm having a hard
time deciding which courses I'd like to take. The problem is that I
don't want to cover a lot of material that I already know, and the class
has to be relevant to our environment to be considered. Because of that
I can't take CATM or MCNS. I've already covered the CCNP/DP level
material but I'm wondering if some of the classes would still be
beneficial, specifically CIT and CID.
Since I'm planning on tackling the CCIE lab, I'm wondering if CIT would
be a good choice. Those of you who have taken CIT, would you recommend
it?
How about CID? That's not as relevent to my immediate goal as CIT but
I'm still interested in taking it. I've read a lot of materials on
these topics but I know that it really helps to have it all packaged
together and presented at once.
I see that Global Knowledge has an advanced switching class based on
the 6000 series switches. That's starting to look pretty good since
we're going to be buying some of those later this year or sometime next
year.
Hmm.... I've already taken SNAM and I'll probably get a CIP class after
I learn some more SNA/VTAM configuration.
I'd love to take some CCIE lab prep classes but there's no way my
employer would pay for those.
Any suggestions from those of you who've taken some of these courses?
I'm leaning toward taking CIT but I'd be interested in hearing your
thoughts.
Okay, enough rambling! Thanks in advice for your advice....
John
