Certifications & career paths

Upon passing the CCIE Data Center lab exam, the candidate is awarded the CCIE Data Center certification by Cisco.
The CCIE Data Center v3.1 course is designed to prepare you for one of Cisco’s most advanced certifications. It covers everything from network connectivity and automation to compute, storage, security, and orchestration. In simple terms, you’ll learn how to design, operate, and troubleshoot large-scale, modern data centers that power enterprises and cloud environments.
The lab exam is an 8-hour hands-on test divided into two sections: Design (3 hours): You’ll analyze requirements and create a data center design. Deploy, Operate & Optimize (5 hours): You’ll configure, troubleshoot, and optimize a live environment. It’s a real-world simulation, testing your technical depth and problem-solving under pressure.
There’s no limit on the number of attempts. However, you must wait 30 days between each attempt, and keep in mind that exam costs are significant, so preparation is key.
You register directly through Cisco’s Pearson VUE portal after clearing the written (qualifying) exam. You can then select your preferred Cisco lab location worldwide, choose a date, and confirm your booking.
We simulate the same time-bound environment in our training labs. Students practice solving complex design and troubleshooting tasks with strict timers, just like in the real exam. This builds speed, accuracy, and confidence to perform under pressure.
We focus on structured problem-solving rather than trial-and-error. Our approach includes: -Breaking problems into layers (network, compute, storage, security). -Using Cisco-recommended troubleshooting frameworks. -Practicing with real-world issues repeatedly until the process becomes second nature. This ensures you can quickly isolate the root cause and resolve issues efficiently during the exam.
Yes, we provide a comprehensive support package including 6 months of extended lab access, doubt resolution sessions, and exam retake support if needed. We also offer career guidance and job placement assistance for our CCIE candidates.
We offer both classroom and online training options. Our online sessions are live and interactive with full access to remote labs.
We recommend dedicating 15-20 hours per week for self-study and practice labs outside of classroom hours. This includes reviewing class materials, practicing configurations, and working through additional lab scenarios. Consistent daily practice is more effective than weekend cramming sessions.
Yes, our labs are accessible 24/7 including weekends and holidays. Students receive remote access credentials for home practice and can schedule extended lab sessions during off-hours. We also provide weekend doubt-clearing sessions for working professionals.
We maintain a maximum student-to-instructor ratio of 8:1 for hands-on lab sessions and 12:1 for theory sessions. This ensures each student receives adequate individual attention and personalized feedback on their configurations and troubleshooting approaches.
Yes, we organize monthly CCIE meetups, alumni networking events, and industry expert sessions. Students get opportunities to connect with certified CCIEs, participate in technical discussions, and build professional networks within the security community.
We monitor Cisco's exam blueprint updates closely and modify our curriculum accordingly. If significant changes occur during your training, we provide supplementary materials and additional sessions to cover new topics at no extra cost.
We use a comprehensive progress tracking system including weekly assessments, practical lab evaluations, and mock exam scores. Students receive detailed feedback reports highlighting strengths and areas for improvement, with personalized study recommendations.
We offer flexible scheduling options including early morning and late evening sessions for international students. We also provide recorded sessions, extended lab access, and one-on-one mentoring sessions scheduled according to student time zones.
Yes, we provide customized corporate training programs for organizations looking to upskill their security teams. These programs can be tailored to specific organizational needs, conducted on-site or remotely, and include custom lab scenarios based on the company's infrastructure.
Yes, upon successful completion of the training program, you receive a Techboxx completion certificate. This demonstrates your training completion and can be valuable for career advancement while you prepare for the actual CCIE Data Center lab exam.
We offer a flexible refund policy: 100% refund if cancelled 7 days before course start, 50% refund within first week of training. No refunds are available after 1 week, but we offer credit towards future courses.
Yes, we offer free one-on-one consultation sessions for prospective students. This personalized 1-hour session allows you to have a direct conversation with our CCIE Data Center instructors. You can ask questions about your career goals, assess your current skill level, discuss the training approach, and get guidance on your CCIE journey. These sessions can be conducted online via Google Meet, Zoom, or other video conferencing platforms for your convenience, or you can visit our office for an in-person consultation. This interaction helps you make an informed decision about enrolling in our program.
