My methodology behind preparing for the SD-Infrastructure part of the CCIE EI exam.

- This is one of the first videos I share with students that are attending our (Micronics Training) CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure course (or my Software Defined Infrastructure part of it). The course is taught in 4 days, but the teacher/student relationship extends pretty much forever.
This video is how I try to set the level of expectation and the degree of effort that will be necessary to reach the end of the journey. Having made the trip myself twice I wasted hours, days and maybe months of my studies trying to figure things out. Trying to learn technologies, trying to improve retention, trying to figure out how best to learn new things. It can be daunting, but if you have a plan, an approach and good mentors (Narbik is the absolute best) you can do anything you set your mind too.
I learned this Stretch, Sprint and Step Goal process in Todd Henry's book "Die Empty", and borrowed the "sketchnote" method from Doug Neil (who oddly enough introduced me to Todd Henry's book in a sketchnote :D)
The man is back! Thank you for the video.
Thanks, Terry. Great instruction.
Your recent approach to producing these lessons is fantastic. Thank you for the great content!
Thank you very much. I am trying to improve on all fronts.
Also recommend Anki for retention. Currently have over 3200 cards in my CCIE EI deck! Great video as always
Great suggestion. Anthony Sequera is a major fan of anki. I forgot about it.
New videos look great
Glad you like them!
Hi Terry
I like the point you bring up about retention. I'm 46 and wonder if I have the mental capacity to retain the entire CCIE blueprint without forgetting the concepts I learned 9 months ago when I started down this path of pursuing CCIE...Although i have been in the field for many years, I'm pursuing this later in life . I like the idea of using labs as a way to retain concepts that you have learned. I’m using the CCNP exams as a way to divide the content up. I passed the ENARSI and ENCOR, working on the SDWAN exam and then maybe the CCNA dev ops
The video you did on SDWAN Centralized Policies was great and convinced me to sign up for the Micronics CCIE bootcamp. I’m signed up for the Saturday class starting Nov 12th. Hope I get you as an instructor for SDA and SD-WAN portion. You should get a commission from Narbik on that sale.
Thanks for the great content..
Glad you enjoyed it.
What would you do when working on a step goal and its for a new topic you haven't worked on before? So for example you may have 2 days allocated to OMP but find its day 4 and OMP is still tough to understand. Do you look for other resources for better explanation or move on to a different topic and come back to OMP(as an example).
if you want to stick to the plan you move on. Then if you feel you are still lack the confidence or demonstrable knowledge you then make a new plan focused on the weak spot. I like to try to "disassemble the topic" down to smallest sub-topics and then double down on the weak spots. In class we call this gap analysis.
