I am in the process of creating Cisco exam preparation videos and handouts ... are there any in particular that you would like posted to help you move your career forward? Below are some examples of what could be posted - Hands-On Labs & Simulation: Using tools like Cisco Packet Tracer, GNS3, or Cisco Modelling Labs to configure routers, switches, VLANs, and OSPF/EIGRP routing. - Official Study Materials: Using Cisco Press books (often written by Wendell Odom), which mirror exam objectives directly. - Practice Question Banks: Utilising reputable practice questions, such as those from ExamTopics or official Pearson IT Certification practice tests to identify knowledge gaps. - Troubleshooting Scenarios: Practising "what-if" scenarios (e.g., "A client cannot reach the server because of an incorrect ACL") to prepare for scenario-based questions. - Video Training Courses: Engaging with visual learning through platforms like CBT Nuggets or Udemy (e.g., Neil Anderson or David Bombal courses). - Flashcards & Memory Aids: Using Anki or Quizlet for memorising port numbers (e.g., SSH: 22, HTTPS: 443), administrative distances, and protocol details. - Focus on Exam Topics (Blueprints): Reviewing the Cisco Learning Network for the specific blueprint to understand topic weightings, such as Network Fundamentals (20%) or IP Connectivity (25%)

Let’s use this thread as our weekly exam prep check‑in so you stay accountable and get support from the group.​ Reply with: 1. Which exam are you preparing for right now (e.g., A+, Network+, Security+)?​ 2. Your exam date (or target month), even if it’s just an estimate.​ 3. Your #1 goal for this week (e.g., finish a module, do 200 practice questions, lab a specific topic).​ 4. One topic you’re struggling with that you’d like help on. 5. How you want the community to support you (accountability, explanations, study partner, quiz swap, etc.).​ Ground rules: - Be specific so others can actually help you. - If you see someone working on the same exam or topic, reply to them and offer one tip, resource, or piece of encouragement. Peer‑to‑peer help is what makes this community powerful.​ - Come back at the end of the week and comment an update: “Done / Not done + what you learned - Let me know if I can help on my VIP channel with 1 to 1 help on your subject of choice

Kick off your exam journey with Introduction to Exam Prep inside the my Skool community. This session lays out how the group will tackle CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, and other core exams using focused sprints, weekly goals, and a clear roadmap from day one.​ You’ll see how the classroom, calendar, and gamified leaderboard all work together: structured modules for core topics, live study sessions on the calendar, and community challenges that reward consistent practice instead of last‑minute cramming. Expect exam‑style questions, lab-based scenarios pulled from real environments, and small study squads so you can stay accountable, share notes, and actually finish what you start—not just “watch another video.”
