Re: [Blind-sysadmins] [BW] cisco networking academyfor the visionimpaired offering classes for 2010

Frank, Discovery 1 is mostly a windows networking course. W/a wireless router in hand, I could basically do all the stuff. Discovery 2 places more emphasis on Cisco products. They now have a java based gui out which is inaccessible, so the labs using that u can't do, but everything that can be done using the java u i can also be done w/the cli, & using the remote bundle, that's not hard.

What did they have you do in the lab portion for your CCNA and how doable was it without sight? Frank

When I tested and this was a while ago and for a different cisco cert but they waved the time requirement and also provided an extra day for the lab. Not sure if this is standard though.

Hi,

I would be interested in finding out how many people take this to the CCNA exams. I did the old-style CCNA study 1 through 4, but kept failing the

actual exams, , one reason for which was that by the time the reader read out the question, I was using all my extra time up.

Andrew.

I had a look as well.

I'd really like to sign-up but would like to see some pricing etc on the site before hand.

Barry.

Hello all, I know this is sort of off topic for this list. I was just wondering, has anyone else looked into this, or actually done this? I am looking in to the CCNA Discovery, but the site ciscovision.org isn't to detailing.
