The following is a comparison of time and out-of-pocket expenses * required to achieve an Express Foundation Specialization using either Partner Education Connection (PEC) or Instructor-Led Training (ILT), where available. As a Cisco Partner you benefit by using the PEC, generally saving significant investment dollars in travel, training fees and out-of-office time.

We highly recommend you consult with your Cisco Channel Account Manager prior to committing to a particular specialization and/or certification to help ensure there is adequate opportunity in your geography and market. * Times and costs are estimates for the purpose of comparison. Your organization's investment may vary depending on the career certifications individuals may have.
