Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We’ve got answers!
What are the prerequisites for CCIE training?
CCIE programs require solid networking fundamentals. We recommend CCNP certification or equivalent experience (3-5 years) in enterprise networking before enrolling in CCIE courses. For CCIE Security, understanding of firewalls and security concepts is essential.
Do I need cloud experience for AWS/Azure certifications?
For Associate level certifications (AWS Solutions Architect Associate, Azure Administrator), basic IT knowledge is sufficient. Professional and Expert level certifications require 1-2 years of hands-on cloud experience. Our courses include comprehensive labs to build practical skills.
How long do I have access to the lab environment?
You get LIFETIME access to our lab infrastructure! Unlike other providers who limit lab time, we believe in unlimited practice. Access real Cisco equipment, AWS/Azure sandboxes, and Fortinet appliances 24/7 forever at no additional cost
What is your certification pass rate?
SMEnode Academy maintains a 95% first-attempt pass rate across all certification programs. This is significantly higher than the industry average of 60-70%. Our success comes from expert instruction, comprehensive labs, and personalized mentoring.
Do you offer payment plans or financing?
Yes! We offer flexible payment plans for all courses. Options include 3, 6, or 12-month installments with zero interest. Additionally, we accept corporate training vouchers and work with employers on sponsorship programs.
Is job placement assistance included?
Absolutely! Our career services include resume optimization, LinkedIn profile enhancement, interview preparation, and direct introductions to hiring partners. We work with over 150 companies actively recruiting certified professionals.
Can I switch between course schedules if needed?
Yes, we understand that schedules change. You can switch between weekday, evening, or weekend batches at any time. We also offer self-paced options with recorded sessions if you prefer maximum flexibility.
What makes SMEnode Academy different from other training providers?
Three key differentiators: (1) All instructors are CCIE or cloud-certified professionals with real-world experience, (2) Real equipment labs – not simulators, (3) Small class sizes (max 15 students) ensuring personalized attention. Plus lifetime lab access and our 95% pass rate speak for themselves.
