Need to get CCIE certification? The Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert Voice certification is an industry-recognized accreditation for senior engineers in IP-enabled Voice technology disciplines.

One training company, IPexpert, is now training for the new 3.0 version of the test.

According to  IPexpert:

To become CCIE certified, engineers spend years preparing for an exhaustive 8-hour hands-on “lab” exam conducted by Cisco, the global leader in computer networking solutions. IPexpert (http://www.ipexpert.com/) is a training organization focused on preparing seasoned computer network engineers for the coveted CCIE exams, through various learning solutions including self-study materials and instructor-led training courses.

As enterprise networking technologies continue to evolve, Cisco implements changes in the CCIE exam topics to ensure that the individuals being certified as experts are adept with the current technologies. Due to technology enhancements, modifications to the various CCIE exams tend to be made every two to three years, with the most recent affecting the Voice specialization.

According to Paul D. Kretkowski,

Voice 2.0 is an umbrella term for a loosely defined set of technologies and ideas that let people transmit voice, data, video and instant messages via IP, anytime, from anywhere. It also implies a world where users, rather than a central authority, will have much greater control over who they communicate with, how and when.

He says that the Voice 2.0 applications would bring down telecom bills significantly. However, the implication of Voice 2.0 applications needs a lot of hard works and efforts.

Some of the technocrats consider that we are in the Voice 2.0 era.

Andy has asserted that we are in the Voice 3.0 Era. He claims,

In essence I think we are headed to Voice 3.0, which as pal Jeff Bonforte at Yahoo likes to say, brings 2.0 approaches to a 1.0 world. In my interpretation that’s taking Yahoo Voice or AIM PhoneLine and all they have to offer and applying them to a 1.0 world. That’s where friend and client David Beckemeyer’s PhoneGnome falls in my book. I would have previously thought of them as a 2.0 solution but really PhoneGnome is in the space of bridging both worlds and providing the first and true Voice 3.0 solution even before 2.0 was fully baked.
