Hi there! I am Matt from Illinois, USA

Who are you?
I’m a new graduate looking to increase my skills from CCNA R&S to CCNP ENCOR and ENARSI. I’ve got some experience, but the pandemic has given me more time to study.

Where are you?
I’m living near Chicago currently.

What stage are you in? Are you a beginner in networking? A veteran studying for a CCIE exam?
I’ve been through a associates degree at the community college in my area focusing on networking. We used cisco netacad there, which helped me get my CCNA routing and switching about a year ago. I’d like to get CCNP ENCOR and ENARSI within the next 4 months.

What’s your background? Why did you join NetworkLessons.com? Any cool stories to share?
I’ve been looking at David Bombal’s free CCNP course, but wanted something a bit more structured and less video heavy. This seems to fit the bill.

I hope to learn and be able to help others on occasion as well!

Hello Matthew,

Welcome! Congratulations passing the CCNA exam and good choice to continue with CCNP :+1:

I wish you good luck studying. If you need any help you know where to find us :slight_smile:
