CCNP Route Scheduled

TBickle

I finally scheduled my CCNP Route Exam for this upcoming Saturday at 10am. I scheduled it a bit later in the morning so I could get some last minute review in. We'll see if it is of any help. If I pass this exam, then all I will need is TShoot. Do you all recommend I study hard for TShoot or just schedule and take it another week or so? Some people have said that they just take it immediately afterwards since the test has no new material? Suggestions?

On a related note, I'm curious to know how many of you all have your company reimburse you for the cost of the exams? I approached my boss about it and she said that they would not be able to reimburse me, and then she goes on to say that many organizations do NOT cover the costs. I was completely floored when she said that they don't, because my previous employer covered my CCNA.

Good Luck Man. Sorry they will not pay you for this. My company pays for everything study guides and test it saves them $$ because most of the time they send everyone to training for $4000.

^{Good luck to ya I am taking my exam the same day! I hope for a pass for the both of us!

I feel your pain too about having to shell out your own money for certs. I work for a multi-billion dollar corp. and they can't pay for cert tests for lowly me}

Wow! Same Day huh? I've been following your Study Journal for some time now, so I'm happy to hear you'll be taking it the same day as I am. Good luck! I'm sure you will pass.

I'm surprised your company doesn't cover it especially since it's a multi-billion dollar company. Every company except the one I currently work for has covered them, but I'm not really that surprised the current company I work for doesn't cover it since it is in the public sector.

Good luck. Keep us posted after your exam.

Good luck to the both of you

Exam costs for my CCNA was covered by the company with corresponding justification that the knowledge/skill gained is crucial to the role I perform.

They used to cover them, things have changes recently. They used to hire outside training resources to prep us for exams too. Nothing anymore
