What Makes Networkers Champ Different for CCIE Training?
🏛️
Trained by CCIE-Certified Engineers
Your trainers hold CCIE certification themselves and have worked on live enterprise and service provider networks. They have sat the lab exam and know exactly where candidates lose time.
💻
Real Cisco Hardware, Not Simulators
CCIE lab preparation on simulators does not work. You practise on physical racks with real routers, switches and firewalls, including the interface faults and timing behaviour simulators cannot reproduce.
🏢
24/7 Rack Access
CCIE requires hundreds of lab hours. Our racks are available round the clock so you can practise before work, after work, or through the night before a mock lab.
🚀
Timed Full-Scale Mock Labs
We run complete 8-hour mock labs under exam conditions, with scoring and detailed debriefs. Time management is where most CCIE candidates fail, and it can only be trained by practising it.
📑
Small Batches and One-to-One Options
CCIE preparation cannot be delivered to a room of fifty. Batches are small, and one-to-one intensive tracks are available for candidates with a booked lab date.
🎯
Structured Path from CCNA to CCIE
If you are not yet at CCIE level, we map a realistic route through CCNA and CCNP first, rather than selling you a course you are not ready for.
Overview & Key Highlights of CCIE Certification Training
We teach this course through a structured, lab-first approach built around the current CCIE blueprint. Students gain extensive practice on real Cisco devices and live network topologies rather than working from question banks. Our trainers, all CCIE-certified themselves, explain complex protocol behaviour in plain language and then have you configure it, break it, and troubleshoot it. The course covers advanced routing, switching, network security, data centre technologies, automation and structured troubleshooting, so you build genuine expertise rather than memorised answers.
Career Opportunities After CCIE
By completing CCIE Certification Training at Networkers Champ, you prepare for the exam the way the exam is actually designed to be passed: through hands-on lab hours under time pressure. That same preparation is what carries you through technical interviews, because you can explain design decisions and troubleshooting logic from experience. This is why CCIE remains one of the strongest long-term career investments in networking.

FAQ
Questions Students Ask
What is CCIE certification and why does it matter?
CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) is Cisco’s expert-level certification and one of the most respected credentials in networking worldwide. It validates deep practical ability in routing, switching, security, data centre networking and automation. Unlike most IT certifications, CCIE requires passing a full-day hands-on lab exam, which is why employers treat it as strong evidence of real capability.
What is the CCIE exam format?
CCIE has two stages. First, a written qualification exam covering the core technologies of your chosen track. After passing it, you become eligible to book the lab exam — a full-day practical assessment where you design, configure and troubleshoot complex networks on real equipment under time pressure. Both must be passed to earn the certification.
Who can enrol in CCIE training?
How long does CCIE training take?
Our structured CCIE tracks run 90 to 120 days of formal training. Total preparation, including the lab hours you put in independently, usually spans 12 to 24 months from written exam study to lab attempt. Weekday, weekend, online and intensive one-to-one options are available.
Which CCIE track should I choose?
Enterprise Infrastructure is the most widely applicable and the usual choice for corporate network engineers. Choose Security if you work with firewalls and VPNs, Service Provider if you are in telecom, Data Center if you manage Nexus or ACI environments, Wireless for WLAN specialisation, or Collaboration for unified communications. Our counsellors assess your background before recommending.
Do you provide CCIE exam dumps or question banks?
No. We do not use or supply exam dumps, and we would advise avoiding any institute that does. The CCIE lab exam is specifically designed to defeat memorisation — tasks and fault conditions vary, and you are scored on working configurations produced under time pressure. Candidates who prepare from leaked material fail. Our preparation is blueprint-aligned theory plus supervised lab work plus timed mock labs.
What is the CCIE certification cost?
There are three separate costs: the training fee paid to the institute, the written exam fee paid to Cisco, and the lab exam fee paid to Cisco. The lab fee is substantially higher than the written fee, and retakes are charged again. Travel and accommodation to a lab location is an additional cost. Contact us for current training fees on your track.
Do you train on real Cisco equipment?
Yes. All CCIE lab preparation is on physical Cisco routers, switches, firewalls and controllers, with 24/7 rack access. Simulators cannot reproduce the interface behaviour, timing and fault conditions that appear in the actual lab exam, so they are inadequate for CCIE-level preparation.
What salary can a CCIE-certified engineer expect in India?
CCIE-certified professionals command significantly higher packages than CCNP-level engineers. Roles such as Network Architect, Security Architect and Senior Network Consultant are common destinations. Salary depends heavily on track, years of experience and whether you are in an enterprise, telecom or product environment.
Do you offer CCIE training online?
Yes. Live instructor-led online sessions are available, with remote access to our physical lab racks. For the final mock lab phase before your exam date, classroom attendance is recommended where possible, though remote mock labs are also supported.
Do you provide placement support after CCIE?
Yes. We provide resume preparation, technical mock interviews and referrals to our hiring partner network. At CCIE level, most candidates are already employed and using the certification for promotion or a senior move, so our support focuses on interview preparation and role positioning.
