Re: trainer/coach

Hi Experts,

I had a few requests from other students asking what I found out about
individual one on one training/coaching. So, here it is. I did find
several vendors that will accommodate this type of request and it's usually
in the 100/hr price range. One side note, I would much rather pay a CCIE
directly via paypal than pay a vendor company, so if there are any CCIEs or
CCIE instructors that want a little extra money unicast me. Otherwise I'll
go with the vendors.

I am planning on meeting with an instructor for an hour twice a week for the
next three months to cover any issues that I run into on the labs.
Especially QoS and Security. I am hoping that this will shorten the
learning curve and that I will spend less time lost and be more productive
in the practice labs. I am then going to a 12 day bootcamp to try and put
all the individual pieces together. I've had several emails mentioning that
while bootcamps are great don't go until you are very solid on the
individual technologies.

I also got an email from Anthony Sequeira at INE asking if I wanted help
putting together a study plan, which I gladly accepted.

So, that's what I've found out so far, thanks all for your suggestions and
help.
