Hi there
Has anyone used a computer based training program for the ccnp certification?

I used the learnkey series for BSCI and BCMSN and found them very good. My work have a library of the all so I dont have payout of for them

are they good? yes very

worth the money? No

www.learnkey.com

I know a few people on here swear by CBT nuggets, by I dont think they are that good to be honest.

Ill second that motion regarding CBT nuggets. And learnkey... ooiii they are expensive. Unless you get them by other means.

Other means are great, I have noticed that cbts do cover the objectives as compared to any hard cover books.

Again, you need additional material to help with any exam.

I would take your word on that, but since i have already had them & listened to them & did not find anything wrong with them. ( probably because i don't know much ) Can you tell me what did you find wrong so that i can supplement my studies accordingly

dark, its probably just a personal thing, I am used to Mike storm (the guy who does the cisco + net + etc) well have a full library at work of learnkey and some nuggets, I found on the BSCI that it was lacking in some topics and didnt find it as easy to follow. Im not saying the learnkey ones are perfect. I just find them more comprehensive, much like when I did CCNA I found sybex was good but lacked in areas.

For BSCI I found cbtnugs rushed over BGP and router policies and spent ages on RIP etc which arent even covered really.

What about the CBT Nuggets for CCNA, the 4 CD set.

Is that good enough, what do you say ?

as I say I prefer learnkey, but they cost A LOT more. Im sure Cbt will be just fine as long as you combine it with other sources, Sybex, ciscopress and hands on.
