Mark,

She just gets a little excited, that's all. She has the best of
intentions - she's just trying to set things straight with the details
in regards to the lab safe program.

I'm going to try, and hopefully, end this thread and suggest if you have
any questions about the program to contact me offlist or, if you like,
you can contact Rick Smith at cisco (smithr_at_cisco.com) We've asked Rick
to work with CLN to clear up the confusion.

thanks,

Brad Ellis

        All the bickering and barking. All the opinions and harsh tones.
All this for what? To get customers? Prove a point? You all (no names
provided as I already said what I felt) are providing absolutely EPIC
FAILURE... Now won't you all take a deep breath...

        For anyone reading this who thinks this is all this list is
about. Kindly forgive the BS. The kids arguing just can't provide a
document and just move on. Instead, they trump their business...not
really thinking that by all the talking their doing they are in fact
making their business look STOOPID!!!

        Here is the document
https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/docs/DOC-5913

        Hopefully this will put an end to this, so we can all help,
learn or whatever. I'm just tired of having to hit delete every 5
seconds with no real traction.

        Thanks kindly.

        NOW....Was that different to what i mentioned?

        I am in this program and i do talk to RICK Smith, and sometimes
on weekly basis. I have included my 2.0 boot camp in this program and
together the students have a better passing rate. May be the BEST
passing chance. But hey.....if a student does NOT score 80 percent on
ONE of the labs, then, i guess i will not be recommending him/her for a
FREE voucher, i guess after all the labs and lectures in my boot camp if
you still score below 80 percent on all the labs, i guess you are NOT
ready therefore, you don't qualify.

        Now once again:

        1 Attend CIERS1 or CIERS2
        2 Complete 1 Assessment Lab and score 80% or higher
        3 Instructor Recommendation

        I'm not doing anything but reading. Why is that so hard for
some people
        to do???

        For the assessment labs, it very clearly states "Complete all
and score
        80% or higher on at least one exam"

        AND = both. Purchase FOUR assessment labs. Score above 80% on
at least
        one.

        Attend the course as you stated

        AND obtain the instructor's recommendation. While we may like
to assume
        that's an automatic thing, clearly it is not otherwise they
wouldn't
        bother putting that in there.

        Beyond that, I'm not making anything up, but it would be very
nice to
        have people read their own marketing stuff. And it says that
"All
        components must be marked complete" blah, blah, blah.

        I repeat, I don't have anything against the program or the Safe
Lab...
        Just against sales folks not knowing their own rules and trying
to sell
        something without full disclosure. And yes, I hold the same
principles
        towards anyone selling anything in life, so it's nothing new.

        If that's unbelievable for you, I'm sorry about that. Notice
that in
        NONE of the posts did I say "gee, go someplace else instead" or
name
        anything else. So how about you figure out what the program is
that
        you are involved in and between yourselves quit making shit up?
THAT is
        the point.

        Principles. New concept. Nothing more needs to be said about
it, so
        feel free to come out with another "unbelievable" commentary.
I'm done
        with it.
