Policy Change to Payment for CCIE Labs
In effort to improve the availability of CCIE lab exams Cisco has updated the CCIE lab payment process.
On September 6, 2008 the payment policy for CCIE labs will be as follows:
Payment in full is due 90 days (calendar) prior to your lab date. Payment must be received to confirm your date. After 90 days refunds will not be available for cancelled lab dates.
The change in this policy will allow for lab seats to be open in a timely manner and create more desirable time frames.
If you have questions or want to confirm you are within the 90+ day window please contact customer support.
I am a fan of this policy. It couldn’t have come at a better time. I am also a fan of the CCIE interview after the lab.
@Jeremy: I agree on this policy as well. I’m still not too sure about the interview. I suppose that it’s a good idea but lets face it, some people are not really people people and usually you can find them hidden away in a server room. I’m not saying that it’s a bad idea, just that its an interesting idea.
