Announcing Juniper JNCIA-M Certification Bootcamp training

[Merit Network Professional Learning]

Merit Network is pleased to host "JNCIA-M Certification Bootcamp," an
intensive 5-day course that prepares students for the Juniper Networks
Certified Internet Associate exam. This course will be taught during the
week of March 9-13, 2009, at the Michigan Information Technology Center
in Ann Arbor.

Registration and a full course description are now available at:

  http://www.merit.edu/events/juniper2

The Bootcamp is an excellent development opportunity for network
professionals who are new to the Juniper OS. Students should be familiar
with basic networking, routing, and TCP/IP concepts. This class assumes
students are proficient in IP subnetting.

During the week, students will be presented with individual topics and
problems to solve including the JUNOS software CLI, RIP, OSPF, IS-IS,
BGP, MPLS, firewalls, and routing policy. Each topic is explained in
detail and students practice their skills using live routers and through
numerous practice mini-exams. The boot camp is approximately 80% lecture
and 20% hands-on lab.  Class size is taught with one router per two
students, and class size is limited to 16.

On the final day of the course, students are presented with a review and
a complete practice exam that closely simulates the actual JNCIA testing
environment. All students receive a free certification exam voucher good
for the JNCIA-M exam and three JNCIA-M written practice exams at the
conclusion of class. The Bootcamp is taught by Proteus Networks, a
Juniper training partner and the only organization in the U.S. providing
the course in this format.
