How to Network Tip of the Week #91 - 18th June 2009

===========================================================

Welcome to the ninety first www.howtonetwork.net tip of
the week.

===========================================================

Welcome to another weekly tip.

New for this week are switching videos, last chance for
the IT business seminar next month, top tips from a newly
passed CCNA and a new video uploaded to YouTube.

===========================================================

Well done to Stephanie Heidemann who passed her CCNA
this week. I know Stephanie worked very hard for this
and was in fact one of the testers for my new 101 labs
for the CCNA exam book. I am filming videos for this
book this and next week.

Stephanie took the time to put down some exam advice on
the forum which I think is very important for you to
read if you are taking the exam:

New Switching Labs Added

As well as the new switching labs, I am uploading new
videos for you to follow. I consider these labs and videos
crucial to your CCNA exam success. If you can't do them
then your chances of passing are slim at best. Today
the InterVLAN routing video is up as well as port
security. STP election should be up tomorrow:

===========================================================

Feedback for the new 'Hard' exams is coming in thick and
fast. I have changed them so you can check your answers
as you go along. I feel strongly that if you can pass those
before the real exam you are in with a very good chance of
getting through.

Build a Million Dollar IT Business

I have a couple of seats left on this and then I am
closing it off. As a sweetener I am going to let you bring
a friend or colleague on this if you book this week. This
means you can share the cost.

I can't emphasize how important it is to know how to
marketing yourself or your company, especially in the
current climate.
