I like to think of myself as one of the poster children for the Networking
Academy Program, and it comes highly recommended if it's something that fits
your situation. My high school was a Cisco academy, they taught the CCNA
level courses. I enrolled when I was a sophomore, finished the program as a
junior, then passed my CCNA, after I finished my CCNA I got some experience
and finished a CCNP... After the CCNP I got some more experience, and after
a little of Narbik's help in December, I finished the CCIE R&S written exam.
Now hopefully Narbik is teaching the remote lab prep course beginning in
August and I can finish my quest, haha, no, but seriously, the Academy
program is awesome if you have a halfway decent instructor, and the student
is willing to hit the ground running. The program worked wonders for me; I
still talk to students at some local academies here just to provide some
guidance and such...
