A complete no nonsense CCNA Training Guide for the Dreaded Cisco Exam. Coming Soon 2011!
Please let us know what the most valuable piece of training is that you are needing to pass the exam. This way the "All New CCNA Training Guide" can be geared more directly to your study needs. Even Supporting training videos included on the site are available to you.
If you learn anything from CCIEAdvisor.com please take this away with you: “(Network) Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away” – Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Thank you,

Please see below some of the information about the exam: 640-802 CCNA Training from Cisco's Certification website.
"Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA®) validates the ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-size route and switched networks, including implementation and verification of connections to remote sites in a WAN. CCNA Training curriculum includes basic mitigation of security threats, introduction to wireless networking concepts and terminology, and performance-based skills. This new curriculum also includes (but is not limited to) the use of these protocols: IP, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Serial Line Interface Protocol Frame Relay, Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2),VLANs, Ethernet, access control lists (ACLs). "
Our Coming Guide for CCNA Will Train You!
