10 Free Cisco Video Training Courses

Written By Harris Andrea

free-cisco-training-courses

Back in the day when I started studying for my Cisco certifications (around 17 years ago), I remember that the only options available to study for the exams were the following:

  • CiscoPress Books (plus some other authors): I remember that if you could sit down and study the whole 600-pages official Cisco Press book for each exam, then you could pass (provided you also had some practical experience as well). That was the way I passed all of my exams. The advantage of studying the whole book was that you actually learned the networking principles and concepts which stick with you for ever.
  • Instructor led training classes: That option was very expensive and required that you attended a 5-day class for each exam.

There were no online training courses and other options like today. Also, fortunately there were no brain-dumps like today which you simply read a few hundred questions and take the exam without actually learning anything.

Nowadays, online video training is quite popular. With online video training, it is like attending an instructor-led training class, only much cheaper and on your own pace.

Udemy is the best online training portal which offers thousands of training courses in video format.

I have collected some free Udemy Cisco courses which you can just register in and take without paying anything. Here we go:

NOTE: The last one (number 10) in the list below is one of the best free Cisco trainings.
