Hi Everyone,

My name is Stephen, I have joined the LUG a while ago however haven't attend
contributed anything sorry to say. I recently passed my CCNA via Yale in
Wrexham however IT was over  two year period which cost me 350 pound per
year. Bargin! However the trade off is a long time commitment but on the
plus I didn't have to make any investment in equipment and then bundle it
off on ebay afterwards. They also offered believe until recently the Cisco
Wireless course too which was a doddle compare to the CCNA and only a year.

Regards

Stephen

If anyone is interested, I am (trying) to run the networking course again
before end of Jan. Taught by a pro lecturer. It's a basics and intermediate
day long hands on.

Cost would be less than ?100 each. Would prolly need 7 people or so.

Just putting it out there.
