Cbt

I have been using Testout for all of my certifications. However, I noticed they do not have any products for CCNA Voice and CCNA Security which I am really interested in taking this fall. I was wondering if anybody know any other Computer Based Training company that offers video lectures as well as simulations like Testout? I like CBT Nuggets as well, but CBT Nuggets has no hands on and no test questions. Well they do but not enough.

Cisco CCNA Security - Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security(IINS) 640-553 Exam | Train Signal

I've never used Train signal before, but have been told that they have a pretty good program. I think I will be using them for my security+. They don't have the CCNA voice though.

OK, but does this have the hands on simulations like Testout? I'm worried about the hands on simulation.

I passed the CCNA Security exam a few months ago using the Train Signal DVD and the book by Catherine Paquet. The Train Signal CBT also came with a Transcender practice test which, quite honestly, wasn't very good. Some of the CCNA Security subject categories in the Transcender had like 10 questions or less. Hardly a way to test your knowledge.

I've used a few CBTs in the past and I think what makes them good or bad is highly dependent on the instructor's teaching style and its compatibility with the student. At least in my experience. Chris Bryant's style works quite well for me, but that's just me. You can get samples of his style on YouTube, etc. and see what it's like. I thought the material was pretty good, although much of it was review for me.
