One more thing worth noting:

There are other vendors with similar offerings:

Most each vendor has "per-Technology Labs".

IPExpert offers CODs - I am least experienced to
comment here - I have not yet see the latest and it
has been about 3+ years since I viewed one of them
with a friend of mine who bought them then. So not
much of an opinion here.

NMC has CODs for Frame Relay and IPv6 already out and
incredibly detailed. They are also the highest
priced, I do believe at the moment. Again they have a
ton of detail, quizzes, hands-on scenarios, and they
have the CheckIT engine as well - Nice to have all the
available show commands to validate each step -
literally step-by-step.

NLI - Offers their Technology Labs Workbook and the
Soup to Nuts workbook... - Each of these is fairly
well priced and offers everything down to show and
debug level output for each command and many can be
doen with as few as two routers. Quite an impressive
offering. One can almost do them without a router...
