About IPexpert CCIE Voice One Week Lab Experience Boot Camp
Clients serious about PASSING the CCIE Voice Lab exam come to IPexpert, the right organization for CCIE success. IPexpert has trained MORE CCIE VOICE engineers than any company in the world.
The IPexpert CCIE Voice One Week Lab Experience is designed for CCIE Voice candidates in the last month or weeks before their CCIE Voice Lab exam. During the week clients will engage in three challenging full-day mock labs. Clients will enhance time management skills, learn test taking strategies and expose weaknesses so that any issues can be resolved before the actual lab. During days two and four of the course, the Instructor will review with clients the progress made on each lab and help plan a strategy to improve any areas of weakness before the real CCIE Voice Lab exam.
During each day of the labs, the Instructor will act as a proctor by providing clarification in the same manner the proctor will during the actual CCIE Voice Lab exam to replicate the actual lab environment. Clients will be challenged to think problems through without having the solution provided, a very important part of lab preparation training. After clients have been asked to perform troubleshooting and assessment, if assistance is still needed, of course the Instructor will assist figuring out any issues. IPexpert instructors will teach a world-class troubleshooting approach so when clients encounter problems they will be able to quickly identify and solve these issues.
IPexpert's challenging course contains difficult mock labs with detailed solution guides on advanced topics including configuration & troubleshooting of Unified Communications Manager 7, Unified Presence 7, Unity Connections 7, Unified Contact Center Express 7, H323 Gatekeepers, Unified Border Elements, SIP Proxy and Redirect Servers, Communications Manager Express 7, SIP and SCCP 7900 series endpoints, expert level Dial-Plan implementation, SRST, AAR, IPMA, B-ACD, PSTN trunk signaling protocols such as T1/E1/PRI/CAS/SCCP/MGCP/H323/SIP, QoS and RSVP, among other protocols and voice applications. IPexpert courses are being frequently reviewed to ensure that it is up to date and meets the latest topics tested on the CCIE Voice Lab exam blueprint.
Throughout the course clients will have unlimited access to their own rack of equipment matching the CCIE Voice Lab blueprint.

Below are some success stories from CCIE's — in their own words. — and MANY more are available HERE.
"I would like to express my gratitude for the training that I received from IPexpert in preparing for my Voice CCIE lab. I used the Voice Proctor Guide to gain a solid foundation of the possible testable topics in the Voice CCIE lab, and then partook of the 5 day lab experience boot camp taught by Vik Malhi roughly one month before I sat for the exam. I was thoroughly impressed with Vik’s knowledge, and a few times during the course my lab partner and I would bet on how quickly Vik would know the answers to our questions before we finished the questioning sentence.
In addition, during the month after my bootcamp and before my lab practical, I posed many questions to the online forum that the Instructors would respond too. The Instructors explanations were clear and concise and he went above and beyond in many situations to make sure I understood the material. I am happy to report that I passed the Voice lab and feel strongly that IPexpert was a contributing factor.
However, I would also like to make the point that IPexpert does not train people to pass the CCIE Lab exam. To the contrary, IPexpert’s training regiment ensures that each individual actually understands the technology and truly becomes a better engineer."
IPexpert's One Week Learning Experience for Voice was invaluable preparation for the actual voice lab. Vik Malhi was a fantastic instructor and covered all the topics in the new CCIE-V 3.0 blueprint in great detail.
