Has anyone spent the $3k or so for the CCNA training camp program? Seems like a spendy way to go, but 5 days lodging and meals included, test voucher, 95%+ success rate, just curious if anyone has recommendations on it.
It is only my opinion, based on my experience and education...I am always willing to learn, educate me!

Sounds alot like ACREW out in Colorado. I've taken a couple of their boot camps a few years back. I've been very happy with them and the quality of the camp. If it ACREW, say hello to ToddK for me.. hellva a teacher. Make to ask him about his survial instructor days in the military.. just dont do it right before lunch ;)

It also sounds like CCPREP, based in Florida, Lou Rossi and those guys do a great job.

If you have some experience and want a refresher or if you are relatively new to Cisco and want a good foundation they can help you out.

It all depends on the school and they teachers they hire, if you just want to pass the test there are plenty of "boot camps" that teach the test, CCPREP is not one in my opinion.

As a side note, teaching to the test never works, in my
opinion. If you really want to learn the material needed
to pass the CCNA, I would recommend getting a couple of
2501 routers (3), and a 1924 switch, and the CCNA
test preparation book by Wendell Odom (cisco press).

By doing LOTS of practice, it will INSURE you know
the material inside and out, and this will enable you
to pass the CCNA exam with points to spare.
