"Don't take the CCIE certification?" Some people have been asking me like this. The reason why he said, because the CCIe test costs are not Philippine, 10,375 yuan to take one (not calculated more than 2,000 pen test costs and pre-training costs), and China's CCIE test room only Beijing and Hong Kong two places, If you don't live in the local, you have to add a toll and accommodation fee, it is also a small expenditure; second, because the CCIE's LAB exam is very difficult, it is generally not easy to test once. And I have consistently think that I should not simply answer Yes or NO. Because the question is different from the questioner's background and the questioner yourself, the answer will be different.
First of all, ask yourself, what is CCIE? I think most people are in order to improve their competitiveness in the workplace. We all want to get the affirmation of others in the workplace, and many people think that CCIE is a symbol of a technical affirmative and status. Of course, from the current number of certifications, it is true, according to the data released on October 1, Cisco (Last Updated): The total number of global CCIE is 11,639, where routing and switching ccie is 11269, more detailed The number of people to the ASIA is 2961, including 1276 CCIE in China. This number of people can say that CCIE certification has not yet derived McSE certification as if there is a friend who buys pirated CDs in the computer store (this is a bit, of course, not said that MCSE certification is not good, mainly because A large number of McSe's large number of questions in the first few years, lealed many friends to be easy to pass by MCSE certification. This year's MCSE2003 certified winners is still very high), what is "things are rare", that is, CCIE From now on, it is the kind of "thin". In addition, the CCIE test is a few laboratory exams, which means that if the candidate can pass such certification, more or less to prove its ability to have certain practical ability.
But these advantages in me, this is actually a big question. At least we agree, in China If you have not seen a driver's license, you will drive, you will drive, don't you take it well, isn't it? Therefore, when more and more people certified by CCIE cannot reach the level, many employers have inevitable CCIE certification confidence, so they also breed "CCIE non-professional" speech, thus Leading CCIE's salary is getting lower and lower, and the vicious circle has caused many friends to start the article. He should not take CCIE certification?
This year, I certified to the sky, many people are a left hand ABCD certification, and a WXYZ authentication is a right hand. At the same time, there are several certifications. When everyone has authentication, the certification becomes unusually, just as now is a person with a university diploma, this paper diploma does not guarantee that they can find satisfied work. I feel that the certification is like a currency, it will inflate. But if the words come back, if the Wang Dawei next door and the uncle of the upstairs have passed a professional certification, they will not take these certifications, and there will always be a dwarf feel. This is like, you must make more currency back when you depreciate the currency. Therefore, it is now certified as a national exercise in the information industry, and many people have become a big popularity with the purpose of obtaining certification.
I think CCIE certification should be the way to use water to the channel: After you think the technology reaches a level, it is really going to test when you have a need for this certification. Since your strength is enough, you should be able to have you only have to pay for a lot. If the strength is not enough, you will learn the Cisco these network technologies in the way you are ready to authenticate, just like the education of filling, it is very painful. If the strength of this technology is sufficient, then in the process of preparing CCIE certification, many of the previous ignored details will feel very fulfilled. I think people with good technologies, no matter whether they are not examined, they should review technology in the way to prepare for certification exams. In this process, you will reix the lack of technical puzzles. Take these technologies involved in the CCIE test, it is really awkward, everything is available. The network technology is originally a vast ocean, and you only see the CCIE LAB test outline I published, you can learn the no maintenance of these technologies, but it is even more difficult to understand every technical point, but put these technical points. Even thus form your own skills. This will not feel hands and fear when you face a new device or a new technology point. I don't encourage college students who have just graduated or have not graduated to test CCIE certification. First, the CCIE exam is the highest combination of theory and practice, and there is no practice in theory, it is difficult to pass this exam. And because the admission ticket for this certification exam is not very suitable, there are no money to fly (don't forget that this money is not your own earn.). If you have to participate in various training courses, it is more expensive. Of course, if you don't care about these money (or you have a strong ability, you will take a lot of money in the university), and if you want to take the certification to your hand, you will go to your test! Nowadays, many college students want to get a good offer, they all count on the "amulet", in fact, this is very unreal, let alone college students care too much about their first job, of course this is It belongs to another topic, and I will tell another article in time.
All in all, if you are not a computer class, and I hope that I can quickly enter the network industry, I get CCIE certification is a nice way. If you are already in the network industry, you need not CCIE certification, but good results to show strength. If you are very like, I want to become a master of the master, don't go to CCIE certification, otherwise I will be admitted, just like a brand, I want to become a master. The most successful person in a certain field is not required to be certified, and even the certification will have a loss. For example, "Operating System God" David Cutler (Chief Designer of VMS and Windows NT) Do you let him take MCSE certification? "3-D God" John Carmack has MCSD certification? "The father of Linux" Linus Torvalds has RHCE certification?
"So, what about the author? Is it ccie? Or ready to take the CCIE?" If you read, you can only report the universal language "Hehehe" to respond to you. This article rewrites "certification without the use of Mr. Cai Xueli? ".
