“"I attended the 5 day Instructor Led bootcamp and I was not disappointed."”
By: Ken Chan, CCIE #13090 (R&S and Security)

I just got my CCIE security joining the 600+ of CCIEs holding R&S and Security. I attended the 5 day Instructor Led bootcamp and I was not disappointed. I knew I was close in the previous attempts but missing some key elements. The Instructor was very patient and dedicated when answering my questions.

I had been to another boot camp claimed to be the best in the world but they were much commercialized that you need to shutdown your work before 8 hour day is up. Not here, the IPexpert instructors sacrifice their own time to stay late to answer or solve your lab problems. In addition to that, you have the option to continue your lab in progress even from your hotel room over the Internet. I highly recommend IPexpert to those CCIE to be.

 
 
“"I've passed the CCIE Security Lab Exam in my first attempt!"”
By: Steven Lau Peng Wah, CCIE #21052 (Security)

I was finalizing my preparations for my CCIE lab attempt. I've figured out that I needed a Bootcamp to solidify my knowledge in the subject as well as to identify any possible weaknesses before the lab attempt. IPexpert CCIE Security Bootcamp didn't really let me down.

The mock labs were designed in such a way that it makes you think hard. It really tests how strong is your fundamental security knowledge which is imperial to the lab exam. And from there, I've picked up many pointers which it's so useful for me to consider when attempting the lab. The end results, I've passed the CCIE Security Lab Exam in my first attempt!
