  • AlphaPrep are an official partner with Cisco and Prometric (who run the exam). The questions were written in partnership so they are incredibly similar to what you will see on the real test.
  • The practice tests mimic the real exam experience, with exactly the same difficulty level. This is different to the other practice exams available today which are too easy and trick you into a false sense of confidence.
  • The system tracks your progress and machine learning adapts the test engine to your previous performance.
  • Detailed feedback is provided on your strong areas and where you need to improve.
  • An overall score level is shown which tells you exactly how prepared you are for the exam. Once you have reached level 7 (which requires passing several tests) you know you are ready to take the exam.
  • The system is proven to have a precise level of accuracy in telling you when you will pass the exam. This means you will pass on the first attempt and not have to spend an additional $400+ to resit the exam, take time off work and get to the test center again. Taking the practice tests saves you time and money.

You'll develop full understanding of all the CCNP ENCOR exam topics through a proven step-by-step system of HD video tutorials, quizzes, study notes and practice tests. Full configuration and troubleshooting lab exercises are also included so you'll get the advanced hands-on practical skills you need to work on real world networks.

The Cisco CCNP ENCOR Gold Bootcamp offers an easy to understand, structured approach to shortcut your path to mastering Cisco networking to the CCNP level and beyond.

You will:

  • Develop advanced level Cisco networking knowledge and practical skills
  • Build the confidence to crush the ENCOR 350-401 exam so you can prove your expertise to employers
  • Walk through complete and easy to understand explanations of each technology area covered in the exam
  • Follow simple step by step instructions to build your own fully featured lab on your laptop. You’ll get started with hands-on practice immediately - no equipment is required.
  • Gain hands on configuration and troubleshooting experience through comprehensive lab exercises
  • Take quizzes to ensure you’ve nailed the test topics and are ready to pass the exam

You can take the Cisco CCNP ENCOR 350-401 Gold Bootcamp from home or anywhere in the world.


You have permanent lifetime access to all the course material so you can go at your own pace and do the lessons on your schedule. You can work through the entire program from start to finish, or pick and choose individual tutorials and configuration demos as and when you need them.

Better Than Classroom Training. WAY better

When you take classroom training you’re taking a gamble on the quality of the course content and instructor. You’ll often find a supernerd who knows the technology but can't explain it in simple terms, or a lifelong trainer who has no real world experience. When it’s over you can’t experience the tutorials again or ask the instructor any more questions.

With the CCNP ENCOR Gold Bootcamp you know you’re getting the best training possible, from the instructor with the highest Cisco training review scores online. I explain things in an easy to understand and friendly way, and the course is filled with explanations of how things work in the real world so you can immediately transfer your skills to production networks.

You can learn in the comfort of your own home, and I’m always here for you whenever you need any help.

No classroom training comes close to providing the depth of content or quality of this course.

… and Less Expensive Too

If you sat on an official Cisco ENCOR training course you’d be looking at paying $4000. You’d get less content, less quality, no practice tests… and pay 400x more for the privilege!

If your company are funding your study then paying for this course is an absolute no brainer for them. You get the best training available, it doesn’t take you out of the office for a week, and it costs WAY less. Sweet!

Both you and your employer get huge value from this investment in your future.

Supercharge Your Learning with Hands-on Practice

You won’t just gain the book smarts to pass the exam, you’ll also hone your advanced hands-on skills to succeed as a network engineer in the real world.

You’ll complete hands-on configuration and troubleshooting lab exercises for each exam topic, with detailed answers to check your understanding every step of the way and build your configuration and troubleshooting skills.

This is the only online ENCOR course which gives you hands-on practice, other CCNP training courses do not include lab exercises.

The CCNP proves you are an advanced network engineer and opens the door to senior level job positions. Here are the benefits you’ll attain after taking the course and passing the exam:

  • Knowledge and Hands-On Skills: You’ll not just be ready to pass the exam, you’ll have advanced real-world networking knowledge and skills.
