This authorized Cisco course provides students with the skills and in-depth knowledge needed to design, and implement, Quality of Service (QoS) on a network. As well as, troubleshoot any issues that may arise. The curriculum covers the different conceptual models; Differentiated Services (DiffServ), Best Effort (over provisioning) and Integrated Services (IntServ) and the implementation of QoS on switches and routers.
Also covered is QoS theory, possible design issues, and the configuration of various QoS mechanisms, facilitating effective QoS administrative policy creation. The course includes the review of case studies and exercises in a lab environment to help students apply concepts learned in a real-world scenario.
The course teaches students the rules of design and usage for various advanced QoS features. The course teaches essential QoS applications and technologies on both enterprise and service provider networks to build and maintain trouble-free multi-service networks that are optimized and efficient.

The instructor was the best teacher I have ever had at any level. I learned more in the last 7 days than I did studying on my own for the past 6 months. The material was presented in a way that was easy for everyone to understand. He by far had the most knowledge of anyone I have ever met in the subject and I hope to learn more from him in the future.

Fantastic instructor! Really knew the material, and was adept at communicating in an understandable manner to those without an IT background. I couldn't ask for a more genuine, concerned instructor who had her students successful learning as the main motivator for everything she did. Simply superb!

Spectrum Training
Incredible instructor. The coursework covered 300 topics in 10 domains, and he was able to speak intelligently on all of them. Better, his teaching style was relaxed and informal, which lessened the feelings of impending doom about the exam we were about to undertake. He knew exactly which sections of the material to emphasize, when we needed a break, and in many cases was speaking ahead of the slides (he knew exactly what was coming up before turning the slides). Rare gem.

Instructor was very intelligent and had lots of experience to draw on, outside of the written paterial that made it more interesting. I was very pleased with him.

One of the most intelligent and well-spoken instructors I have ever had the privilege to work with. His in depth knowledge of the 10 domains in CISSP surpassed my expectations as well as the expectations of my classmates. His teaching style kept the otherwise dry information very memorable and exciting. I would HIGHLY recommend this course to my peers.

Excellent instructor. One of the best I have had in over 27 years in the IT business. Genuinely cared about the students understanding the subject material and their success in passing the exam. She taught how to think and reason to pass the test. That is something not found in any text book.

My instructor is a freaking genius, however he really enjoys bringing the info and material to life so in a way you do catch a bit of genius by the end of the course.
- Samuel Angura

Instructor did a fantastic job of delivering a large set of very dense course material cogently to the class. She obviously had the material down cold and could easily break down elements of the different knowledge domains in clear explanations.
