Johnson,

The bottom line is ...it's against the rules to sell your ID. You can work
as a contractor in the company but not totally sell your id. Cisco mentioned
that at least 2 CCIEs must be Full time employees that leverage you to do
that but not Implying selling the Number.

HTH

This doesn't really matter, and does not prove anything.

The GOLD PARNTER can just pay someone say $50,000 on a W2 as a CCIE and for
that I agree to let them USE my number, and do at least 1 conference call
with their clients each month. There would be no way to tell how many hours
the guy was there...

That seems like fair use to me... How about you guys?

Therefore, I am an employee. The deal is I'm never there, yet I still get
paid. They get a CCIE's number for their roster and a low salary no sane
CCIE would work for...

?

Hey Darren,

The bottom line is that you cannot do what you're proposing. Last time this
came up, I (or somebody - maybe it wasn't be after all) went and found the
audit rules for partner status. Those made very, very clear that any CCIE
numbers being used for partner status had to be *full-time* regular
employees and that (IIRC), the auditor could review payroll records, etc, to
validate that the CCIE was an active, daily participant in the business.

I'm in the same situation. I work independently and thus my number floats.
I don't really want to work in a partner/reseller environment, though, so
that aspect of my number holds no value. Oh well...

Regards,

Scott

Hey all. As per my post last week, I passed the lab and now have an
unassigned CCIE number (I paid for study and lab myself). I'm now in a
position where I'm weighing up my options. Is it possible to 'rent' out my
CCIE number to a company, whilst still remaining employed by my present
employer? I have heard of rentacert.com but people seemed skeptical of it.

Let me stress, I DO NOT WANT TO VIOLATE ANY CISCO POLICIES and if renting
out a cert is doing so, I WILL NOT DO IT. However, if it is possible/legal
and people out there do it, can they kindly explain how it works. I want to
get as much value out of my cert as possible.

Thanks for ANY advice

Darren
