  b.. Passing the lab gives you personal satisfaction.
  c.. Displaying your official CCIE number earns you the respect and
admiration of colleagues and employers.
Obtaining your CCNP was an important step in your career. Taking the next
step-earning your CCIE-will differentiate you, and establish your mastery of
complex technology. Commit yourself to achieving CCIE certification this year.
Schedule your written exam now and enter a drawing for free CCIE self-study
