Sorry, I know I'm late to the game...  I didn't go to any bootcamps or formal 
training to get my CISSP, I just studied materials I could find online, and 
purchased a decent practice exam suite.  See links below.  It took about a 
month of leisure study and maybe 2 weeks of focused study in weak areas for me 
to take the exam with comfort, knowing I would pass.

The practice questions were $60, and were not from brain-dumps, I am ethically 
opposed to that kind of crap...  It has a lot of questions and provided the 
correct answer with a description and links to public domain material online to 
learn about the particular topic/domain.  More than anything, the practice exam 
helped me get in the mindset to take a ridiculously long test, it plays tricks 
with your mind after you've been staring at a scantron sheet for 3hrs.

Hope these help, good luck!  I'm sure there are plenty of folks here that would 
be willing to endorse, add me to the list.
