CCIE Cost

Posted on August 8, 2012January 8, 2019 by Tom Kacprzynski

The CCIE certification is a very honored and respected industry certification, but it comes at a high cost of time and money.  When I started studying for the certification, I couldn’t find a lot of details on its expense, so I decided to keep a running total.  I wouldn’t say that these numbers are representative of all cases, but only one CCIE.  Knowing these figures helps in terms of budgeting especially when comparing individual financing  versus expensing it from a company training budget.

    My own CCIE cost (five years ago) was roughly half this amount. Basically I needed one more attempt, but no bootcamps.
