CCNA Security: Udemy?

Hey all,

Has anyone used Udemy for studying Cisco CCNA Security?

https://www.udemy.com/ccnasecurityvideobootcamp/

The cost is quite reasonable. I just wondered if that and some hands-on labbing is enough to pass the exam. The official course book I is pretty shoddy, I've heard. Are there any other good study resources available? Also is this exam changing significantly in June 2016?

Thanks!

    I used the version for the previous CCNA Security iteration, and it was pretty good. He focussed a bit more tightly on the actual exam content rather than the breadth that the OCG gives. I probably would have failed without it.

    It's unlikely that there will be a major revision of CCNA Security in the near future, since it was updated just late last year. Also, Cisco tends to give ample warning of any changes and has a cut over period of months before they retire an exam.

    There's been rumours of a major refresh at the CCNP and CCIE level for maybe 12 months now, but still no announcement from Cisco.

    Looks like he has updates out this June. That might be good as the new exam has been out for a few months so hopefully he can be more specific. Will see... Ill be in for 30 dollars though lol

    Heck, I'd be happy if Cisco just got off their lazy ***es to fix the serious grammatical errors in their questions on the exam.

    I don't think he's updated his 210-260 course just yet. Bryant pushed it back to June.
