CCIE Voice Certification - NEW:
New Exam Lets You Demonstrate Expertise with Voice over IP
If you deploy or support voice-over-IP networks, or if you want to in the future, start studying today for the new CCIE Voice exam. This new certification is an excellent way to demonstrate your technical expertise and to prepare yourself to meet the growing demand for voice communications over IP.
As with any other CCIE track, you'll need to pass both written and lab exams to earn your CCIE Voice certification. You can sign up now to take the Beta version of the written exam between March 17 and April 7 for only US$50 (a US$250 savings). After you get a passing grade on the written test, you can sign up for the lab exam. Lab exams should be available in late summer 2003.
For recommended reading, suggested training, and more information about the CCIE Voice exam, visit the CCIE What's New page:
