I finally passed the CCIE Security this week after starting this journey over 2 years ago in November of 2015. As I did with the CCIE Data Center, I'm going to go through the cost and time I spent on the CCIE Security. 

It's been awhile since I've written on my blog and I wanted to update you all with a review of some of the training material I'm going through. A few months ago, I saw an ad for a trainer called Khawar Butt who was selling an "All Access Pass" for his CCIE training. This post is going to be about my decision to give it a try and my experience with his courses. 

This is going to be more of a fun post since people usually ask how much a CCIE costs or the the time it takes. This post is going to go over the time and money costs of getting my CCIE Data Center. 

I wanted to write up a review of my experience with Micronics Learning Z2H Security class. A lot of folks have asked me both on Twitter and on forums about it. I was lucky enough to attend the first class they had late in 2015 and it was honestly one of the best uses of my money for training that I've ever spent. If you're looking for CCIE Security v5 training or just Cisco security training in general, this is probably the best class on the market to get it. Since they are a Cisco Learning Partner, they do accept Cisco Learning Credits definitely can help if you have an employer that will only purchase training with learning credits.
