Started out as the guy who would take the extra time to do lunch-and-learns for others at work. Then moved to a job that was 2/3 consulting and 1/3 writing and teaching hands-on workshops, learning what's real and how to do it in a lab. Then to a job as full-time instructor and part time consultant. Finally, started writing it down for all to read. Now writing all the time, with the most most popular CCENT and CCNA Cert Guides since the early days of Cisco certs, all from Cisco Press.
Today, Wendell spends time writing certification guides, textbooks, designing software, and blogging to help those who have all these products. Over the years, the products have ranged from Cisco certs CCENT, CCNA, CCNP, CCIP, and CCIE, all findable here at Amazon.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So when I ordered this together with a copy of Volume 2, I ended up with two copies of volume 2. Would have been very nice if I hadn't paid a high price for the second volume :-( It's being returned, of course.
The web site claims this product is "Frequently bought together" with the Volume 1 book and the Volume 2 book. Anyone who actually ordered that combination would end up with two copies of each book!
So thanks to Covid and my mundane retail job I will reinvent myself .
I decided to ditch Comptia A+ and invest in CCNA 200-301.
After reading the reviews and looking on the Cisco web site, to make sure that this course of study would suit me, I finally made the investment and am very pleased that I have done so.
Reasons are as follows:
Chapter and section pre test and review to consolidate learning.
Cisco press resources.
Cisco.com resources.
Pearson test prep resources.
Immersion of Cisco exam terminology and in depth coverage.
I have purchased the two volume Official cert guide and in addition to this (just in case I needed background or easier explanations I also bought Tom Lammle's CCNA Certification 200-301 Sybex offering).
Day one review:
I have taken the time to read the introduction, accessed the bonus material, prepared a study plan.
It is 05:08 in the morning and I am skimming through the first chapter (due to acing the DIKTA quiz)
I like the depth and easy way that that concepts are presented, not like a dry book, but more like a complete course of study, review and evaluation.
As I work nights and want to pre listen to lesson prior to reading in order to get the most from my investment and to fully commit to learning and preparing for CCNAI have decided to take advantage of the 70% discount card included in book and have purchased the Premium bundle too, as this works out as £9.00 for the pdf ,epub version plus extra exams.
If you are considering CCNA this book along with the additional Ciscopress/Cisco.com resources would be a wise investment, not just for the savings but more for the wording and support that allows you to relax & fully prepare for CCNA .
Likes...
1) the books seem very detailed, you also get ebooks, the videos which are not very detailed and are limited in number but if you are like me you will want to build your own lab anyway to learn the content properly.
2) self paced, no need to keep to any deadlines so you can fit it in around other things if you need.
Dislikes,
1) questions are limited and so are the videos, you can buy more but to be honsest I prefer to read the book and learn it properly using real grey stock kit purcheased off ebay. I also used GNS which is also good for learning routing but not so good at switching (so far anyway).
2. You will need industry expirience or you will get lost in the jargon. Its not for complete newbies!!
Overall I am really pleased with what I purcheased, I would go with the electronic edition as it will get you started with a few labs at least and the help companion website. I have dabbled around with Cisco equiptment and GNS in the past to get me through other exams and issues I have had so I already had some prior knowlege.. I presume the exam will be fairly difficault but for me I wanted the detail in the books to learn it in depth...
Just to say mine come next day brand new SEALED and in hardback rather than paperback( advertised)
I have read a few hundred pages over the last couple days and it is a fairly good book, the companion website ciscopress.com and the other site Pearsontest.com have good resources.
ciscopress.com:
Key Topics per chapter in downloadable PDF format
Flashcards which are really fun
Memory tables and practice Exercises
Config Checklist Exercises
Video Training
Config Labs
This all comes with the book for volume 1 and 2
pearsontest.com
A practice exam where you can select all chapters or just a few, it does give details on correct answers i have used it a couple times.
I didn't really buy the book for these extra resources, mainly just for something to read while in bed. Don't listen to the negative comments, its a great book and easy to understand with all those extra features which are basically FREE !!!!
The second volume has now appeared, attached after the end of volume 1, on both kindle cloud reader and kindle app, and on my old kindle e-reader. In total, there are over 3000 pages to study and absorb. Determination required. Volume 2 starts around page 2100.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This kindle book contains only volume 1 and costs more than volume 1 alone, but it is advertised as containing both volumes 1 and 2. If you want the whole course on Kindle you will have to purchase volume 2 separately. The contents of the book are excellent, of course, but only half there.
