Dual CCIE #18532 Security/Routing and Switching - George Morton, Ph. D. provides his "take" on this month's CCIE count update: "An interesting event took place this month, the number of CCIEs grew at a greater pace than any other time over the last five months. The five month average had been running around 203 a month, this month the number jumped to 460. Now, we know that we are not counting an exact month to month, but the sudden spike is certainly refreshing." |
