Cisco 360 Training Program

Introduction
Our unique Cisco CCNA 360 training programme has taken NCAT over 10 years to develop and has been built by listening to feedback from our customers. It starts with the CCNA Training Course, either Boot Camp or Traditional. Which ever training method is chosen Cisco CCNA certification achieved either of two ways. Look here for more intermation on how the CCNA exams questions are structured or understand how the exam engine works

Whilst other training alternatives exist none provide such a comprehensive training package supporting our customers every step of the way to career and exam success.

1. Practical Hands-on Training
   A vitally important part of training is the hands-on practicals labs. We understand this and ensure our practical labs start simply and build in complexity gradually introducing problems to improve troubleshooting skills. Delegates who finish labs ahead of others are offered additional tasks instead of being idle which increases pressure on other delegates whilst also improving their own skills. Ensuring that all delegates are fully challenged in a structured environment
   
   
2. Modern Equipment
   NCAT use modern Cisco equipment in all our training courses. However, others training companies still use old legacy equipment which use different configuration commands (very confusing) and do not support the current exam objectives. For examples, 2500 or 2600 routers or 2900XL switches.
   
   
3. FREE Practice Equipment
   An important part of learning is practice not just during the course but also after it. NCAT provide a free Practice Lab available 24 x 7, equipped with the latest modern Cisco hardware all cabled and ready to go with Ethernet, Serial and Frame Relay enabling delegates hassle free studying for CCNA, CCNP and CCIE
   
   
4. FREE Practice Lab Guides
   Free modern equipment to practice on is one thing but we additionally we also supply a FREE Practical Lab Guides. These guides start simply and grow in complexity challenging delegates to troubleshoot real network problems. All guides are also supplied with an answer sheet!
   
   
5. Real Equipment
   Simulations, are just that. NCAT training is greatly enhanced by the use of real equipment. For example, cables can be disconnected to check how real networks will respond.
   
   
6. Remote Lab's
   It's difficult to visualise and configure equipment that's invisible. At NCAT equipment is located with the delegate during training allowing experimentation if desired. Not centrally located for the convenience of the training company
   
   
7. Course Manual and Practical Lab Guides
   A comprehensive course manual and practical lab guide developed over 10 years ensures even the most difficult subjects are a breeze. This structure ensures delegates absorb information easily
