Thanks for this article. I'm planing to take the exam of "Switching and Routing Boot Camp (EXOS and EOS)" and basically I have done studying for this.

My question is, "Does Extreme-Networks offer a preparation exam before my real exam?" Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Weda,

Technical Training does not mail hard copy of the Certificate to students. You should be able to print the certificate after the .pdf version is download.

As far as I know you don't get a hardcopy. At least I've never received one.

[Weda]

I have already downloaded it. I'm wondering whether I do not receive a hard copy via post.
