RE: 1st attempt CCIE R/S - Got my number !

Hi Gobind,

First of all, I normally don't respond to e-mails like this, but you have
questioned my integrity so let me clear some of your doubts about me.

First issue: Teaching Classes for IPExpert, CCBootcamp and Trinet NT.

I got my CCIE in 2003. I first taught for IPexpert in 2004. I taught several
classes for IPExpert from 2004 to 2005. I also wrote the IPExpert Security
Workbook version 2.0. I am sure Wayne and Scott can vouch for that. I was the
owner of Trinet NT along with Narbik before it was sold. I also wrote the
Trinet NT Security Workbook. As far as CCbootcamp goes, Brad, as a response to
this e-mail already confirmed that I have taught over there. If you want, I
can also e-mail you some faxed copies of Student evaluations done at IPExpert.
I don't have to lie about teaching a class at a Training Facility.

Second issue: Teaching a guy that has a lower number than me.

Most of the security classes that I have taught have had students with CCIE
numbers much lower than mine. They had passed their CCIE R/S and not done
their security CCIE. So they came and took my Bootcamp for Security. I have
had CCIE's in my class with a number as low as in the 3000 series.

Third issue: Being on two sites. Why can't an instructor teach a class at
multiple centers? I am not sure why that is so difficult to understand or
believe??

Fourth issue: About your friend, saying that I have been delivering CCIE
training for 8 years, that is not true. But that is something you should ask
your friend. I have been teaching IT since 1992. I started teaching CCIE after
I got my CCIE in 2003. I have been delivering CCIE training since 2003. I am
sure Narbik can vouch for that.

Fifth issue: Resume.

It is just the way it came out. I don't think there is any rule that says that
you have to list your certifications or achievements in any order or format.

I hope I cleared your doubts. If you have any questions about the facts that I
wrote in this e-mail, you can contact me offline rather than wasting a forum
which is meant to help in studying.

to Lower
CCIE Number",Your 2 cents really means a lot ;) Well can you tell me that was
he former
instructor for delivering Bootcamps for CCIE at IPExpert?
