IOS-XR Routing Platforms Investment

The following is an estimate of time and out-of-pocket expenses required to achieve certification for the IOS-XR Routing Platforms ATP program. Training is available through the Partner Education Connection portal (PEC). As a Cisco partner, you benefit by using the PEC, generally saving a significant amount of money you would otherwise invest in travel, training fees, and out-of-office time. These are estimates, in U.S. dollars, for comparison purposes. Your organization’s investment may vary depending on geographic factors and the career certifications that individuals may have.

Cisco ATP programs represent an investment of time and resources. We highly recommend that you consult with your Cisco channel account manager prior to accepting an invitation to help ensure that there are adequate opportunities in your geography and market.

Note: If you are re-invited to the IOS-XR Routing Platforms ATP program, you may only incur costs associated with updated courses.
