Re: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] CCIE Amnesty?

Larry beat me to posting this ;-).

It's a pity though those two lose their CCIEs for renting them to a company
that actually needs them. I would have that company blacklisted as a Cisco
sales channel partner (be it gold, silver, etc.). Reason? If every company
can do this "Rent-A-Cert" kind of thing, the CCIE market would suffer. A
company does not need to have a CCIE on its payroll hence saving it money
from an employment standpoint but instead gain a gold, silver, etc status
from Cisco. The CCIE instead gets a fraction of what he/she is supposed to
be paid for this.

Like Eman mentioned, these CCIEs originally 'rented' out their certs since
their current company does not need CCIEs. But if that's the case, why don't
these guys find an employer that does? I believe they would earn much better
utilizing their CCIEs rather than renting them out. Perhaps the economy in
their country is not encouraging or perhaps they have other reasons but
whatever that reason is, I would strongly suggest you guys/girls to check
with Eman if you're not sure about how to go around issues like this.
