Summary: Study from the Source!
Review: Instead of taking courses for the CCNA, I decided to configure the self-study route (ha ha) and studied from a few books, including this one. Just passed CCNA with 94% marks! The trick is to find a good book like this one, study well and take lots of sample tests. Good Luck!

Summary: Adequate if this is what you need
Review: This training kit is almost what I wanted. It contains a CD and a brief tutorial brochure. The CD has a 199 page PDF book, which you can use both on screen and on paper, it also has CBT software which allows students to learn step by step and check their understanding of the material. There is no video or audio. To be honest I was expecting more from Cisco but this kit is adequate in my case.

Summary: Could make improvements - overall it's oaky as a study tool.
Review: When I studied for the CCNA exam I used a great deal of books and software to study from. I read everything and tried all the practice exams and after 6 months I took the exam and passed. I wish this training kit had been available at the time I was preparing for the exam. The installation of the software was simple and easy, there were no major problems. I was able to install and run the software on a Windows 95, 98, NT and 2000 platform and the only thing I had to do the lower the number of colors in order to run without problems. The software is setup to run in a study mode, which allows for the learning by individuals modules. Also you can leave out questions and this mode allows for you to learn at an easy pace. Study Mode also has the ability to get help while you learn to aide in the study progression. The practice exam mode will give the feeling of the actual live exams before the real exam is your first attempt. With the software installed I was able to track my progress and review the areas I was weakest in. Overall this enhances the Cisco Press books for CCNA, a job very well done.
