    IT Net Academy

    Anyone used these guys: http://www.ciscoccnatraining.co.uk/index.html

    Good, bad, indifferent?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

    Often wondered about this company. For £285 for 6 days training, is it a bargain or just too cheap to be any good?

      I think theres some presumption that you have studied a bit before you turn up.

      Still 6 days in a lab environment with experts on hand at £285 is still a bargain.

        Hello everyone

        I was browsing and came across this thread regarding ITNET ACADEMY

        My advice to anyone considering this company is to go to ebay and buy the cisco hardware instead, then go to amazon and buy a cisco ccna book. Your money will be better spent.

        I wish I had done just that before I went on the course in Birmingham with them.

        Enough said.

          What CISCO hardware and books would you recommend? I have the Cisco CCNA press book, a router and switch. Would that be enough... I'm just starting out.

            A bit off topic, but:

            GNS3 | Graphical Network Simulator

            provides an open source (free) emulator to help you ramp up Cisco skills. Perhaps useful as complementary to any real lab work.

            I haven't tried it myself, but it was recommended to me as newbie-friendly by a Cisco expert who uses it regularly.
