"I've seen many questions on Groupstudy about what to ask the proctor. The students of Heinz Ulm are drilled
every single day on not only what to ask, but when to
ask, and why to ask. They are taught to make an impression on the proctor that they did not come to
take the lab exam, but instead that they are fully prepared for the lab exam and they simply came to the
Cisco facility to collect their digits."

"Unlike Caslow or the Brians - Apparently no one has ever completed a single lab of his in 8 hours on the first try,
nor have they passed it obviously ..."

"He is honest with his students. He will give his students the wealth of his experience. This is what
you are coming to his camp for in the first place."
..to read more comments click here....
"The student is taught strategy and to make no
assumptions. In other camps, one may "told" to make
no assumptions; Heinz takes this a step further and
demonstrates at every single opportunity what
assumptions can be made and what questions are the
correct questions to ask. The student is taught
strategy and a careful strategy involves rigorous
hands-on lab time followed by solving complex network
configurations that Heinz or one of his "MINI-ME's"
have concocted for each student. Yes, I am telling you
that he studies you as you progress through his labs,
and he customizes the labs you are presented each day
in a methodical fashion of helping each student not
only realize his weaknesses, but also learning from
them and even turning them into strengths. Be
prepared he does not neglect what you thought were
your strengths either."

"He breaks you down as you realize where you are truthfully with regard to your skills.
He then builds you up. He creates an "Espirit de Corp" that I have not seen since hanging out with the MARDET
back in my Navy days. His students are loyal. They come as clients and leave as friends."
Another student:
"Your boot camp was really awesome !
CCIE 11827 (Austria)"
"In comparison to other training that I have attended, I would say this is the "MOST" personal training I have yet to attend.
It is very customized and it is very unique."
..to read more comments click here....
"My overall impression was quite favorable. He is a humble man who only has one mission and that is to
prepare CCIE Candidates to take the CCIE Lab and be prepared to pass it. Apparently he does this well.
He will ask you questions. He will engage you. He will ask you to explain yourself, even if you are right,
you must still know why...
If you consider this painful or torture then it is what it is. However, consider this: his students, time after time,
remain motivated to work heavy into the night and into the morning each and every day and each and every class
to try to complete the tasks they have been assigned. His students forego sleep as a rule.
They are so intent into whatever he is
teaching; whatever he has assigned them; and whatever he has asked them to do.
He has an uncanny undeniable ability to simply motivate his students to go one step further
and each student just does whatever is expected."

"Yes - Heinz is unique - he takes situations and turns your weaknesses into strengths."

"One can only imagine how he keeps his students motivated even when their eyes are blood red and their faces are worn out."
..to read more comments click here....
"I think you asked about his "Instructors" that he leaves behind. They are all former students.
The one that is giving a bootcamp in Germany right now is named "Heiko" and he is a "Dirty Evil Bastard" just like Heinz..."

"Heinz is a master. His instructors are chosen and are groomed accordingly. He watches them just like he watches us."

"Overall it is not only the most complete training but it also the best bargain for the buck."
..to read more comments click here....
"His training is simply the B-O-M-B!!!"
Another student:
"I had a pleasure of attending Heinz Ulm CCIE BootCamp during a three week period. Heinz is not only one of a kind internetworking expert but also an experienced professor who has great knowledge of not only the principles and technologies but of ways each and every engineer struggles with adopting them. He knows your weak points and attacks them with no mercy! I must say I deeply respect him and admire him!
And don't forget: A day without CLI is like a day without sunshine!

Another student:
"Heinz is a person with very broad knowledge about IP networks in general. His classes are extremely useful and his teaching method is top notch. Apart from this Heinz is a very open and entertaining person, and because of all that attending his CCIE classes is a fantastic experience. CCIE exam is much more then just having knowledge - and this is where Heinz's classes excel.

"I highly recommend Heinz Ulm's CCIE preparation training. Heinz
provides the finishing touches that one needs to be successful on the
CCIE lab exam. Through his tutelage my skills were fine-tuned so that I
was able to go into the lab without fear (really, I was Uber-confident!)
and pass. Heinz Ulm uber alles!!" CCIE 20503

"I passed lab exam on first attempt after attending Heinz Ulms class, which gave me the necessary knowledge
and time managing skills. Thank you very much Heinz!"

"The Heinz Ulm Bootcamp is like a classical education in computer
networking. He brings you back to the fundamental bits and bytes of IP
networking. In doing so, you gain not just memorised information but an
understanding of the concepts and procotols involved. As a result, the
construction of switching, routing, redistribution and filtering
configurations are far more intuitive.
The Bootcamp also helps you to develop vital exam techniques. The
very nature of the course means that you build mental stamina and after
three weeks of agressive preparation, you should be capable of 8.5
hours of concentration. You are also required to develop the attention
to detail required in the real lab and it becomes obvious very quickly
that no assumptions can be made at all.
Finally, the Bootcamp experience itself was very rewarding and I
met some great friends during the three weeks. The setting is very
informal and while the atmosphere is relax, there is also a collective
focus with everyone working together to solve problems and ultimately
get that number."

"I would like to say that the bootcamp has been extremely valuable to me and I would also like you to thank Heiko
for all his support and helpful advice, I have learned a lot but still feel like I have a lot to learn"

I scheduled the 3 weeks Bootcamp at Heinz Ulm with 7 weeks in advance of my lab date.
At first I thaught that was a long time, because I was feeling pretty good with my
knowledge. But it turned out I was wrong. I wasn't as prepared as I thaught I was.
After the 3 weeks spent with Heinz I knew exactly where I was and what I needed to do.
The 7 weeks after the bootcamp were gold for me.
I passed the lab on my first attempt. Thanks Heinz for everything."

making it enjoyable in the process.
You may see me again on the CCIE security bootcamp once I regain my energy."

"Heiko, I really want to thank you for all your effort and patience. You are a good instructor and more
important you are a great person. I am happy to meet you.
Heinz, thank you too. Your system, training materials are very well
structured and do their job well. I did not realize how much we improved
through these three weeks. Without bootcamp I had no chance to it. Actually
I had no hope at the beggining... now I have the number:"

"Many thanks for the good company in Thierhaupten it's been a tense but fun time.
Many thanks to Heinz and Heiko for all the good advice and the tough mock labs -
it has helped me a lot to improve my Lab strategy and timing."

" WOW - I thought – I really passed it ! What a wonderful feeling after the endless hours of studying before the exam.
I cannot explain how good this feels. But those of you who have done the exam will know what I mean.
I think I would not have passed it on the 1st attempt without the weeks of full-time preparation right before the exam.
Special thanks to Heinz Ulm (aka Drill-Heinz) and Heiko Groeger, instructors at the famous Heinz Ulm Bootcamp for
the challenging mock labs, and all the good advice. MOCK H was EVIL !! "

Hi Professor Heinz,
Coming to your boot camp was the dawn of CCIE reality and a big wakeup
call for me. Prior to my arrival at your boot camp, I actually deluded
myself "in thinking that I was close to being ready for the LAB" I was so
wrong, and so far from the truth. With Professor Heinz, I discovered
exactly "how LIMITED I was in terms of knowledge and CCIE readiness" and
exactly what the CCIE standard was and how distant from it I was at the
time (i.e. in another galaxy). Thanks to Professor Heinz, I was able to
make the transformation from mere "contender status" to "actual champion"
i.e. passing the CCIE Lab.
Warning & Advisory Notice, if you are NOT prepared to sacrifice "your
life" to pass the CCIE Lab, then my advice would be to just forget it,
cause believe me, it DEFINITELY has the potential to be FATAL !!!!

"I thought I knew my routing before I attended to Heinz Ulm 3 week bootcamp.
I was totally wrong. The master himself taught me things that I had never
seen before. I found out that I wasn't that good after all. The drilling
really paid off and now I am a CCIE. Heinz Ulm bootcamp is a must for every
candidate.

A student: "This is a great bootcamp ! Really, I have no idea what you can do to make it even more better. No time limits, great class material"

"I really miss the days in Thierhaupten, and the lovely warm camp. I will start my
work next saturday, but this time with different mind, and different thinking.
All of this was done within 20 days only by a lovely Evil Bastard.
God bless you Heinz and thanks for your highly appreciated efforts"

"you will be pleased to know however that everything you drummed in via
those challenges and the lecturing actually began to play itself out like a well
known dance routine in the lab exam..... without your camp I would have felt very
uncomfortable in the exam"

"Oh Evil Heinz,
A word of thanks for such an enjoyable 3 weeks. Firstly your humour
and kindness made life a lot easier in this tough environment. I
cannot image any other instructor that would treat the student like a
close friend. Your tough challenges have really tested me and have
helped me to develop my Cisco skills and cope better with stress. I
now truly know what area's of knowledge need to be reviewed to succeed
with the CCIE lab. I have gained incredible knowledge and will be
taking a new approach when troubleshooting and configuring routers in
the future. Thank you for having the patience when my brain was so
tired and I could not configure the simplest of tasks."

"An incredible amount of hands-on. An awesome experience in a comfortable
environment with challenging scenarios. By far the best Cisco training I ever
had, a cut obove the rest, but not for the fient of heart you will be stressed
and you will learn what it takes to be a CCIE"

"I have the pleasure to inform you that I managed to pass the CCIE R&S Lab
exam at my very first try.
I believe that it would not be possible without Your collaborative spirit
and support.
Special thanks, I would like to send to Heinz for his kindness, dedication
and supportiveness.
I wish I knew the way how to pay him back for everything he did for me, us."

"Well, when asking me, what one can do best for archieving enough knowhow
and personal strength in order to manage the CCIE-Lab, I would strongly recommend
to join Heinz's Boot Camp. You get skilled, you get tough, and on top you get
some funny weeks with good food and beverage, and (probably most important)
you get into contact with other "pre-CCIEs", which you will never forget and
which you will surely meet in your post-lab-live." Christoph, CCIE#6295"

clear in our configs and to read carefully the tasks."

experience. I appreciated a lot."

thousand thanks to Heinz. Greetings from a Heinz Ulm-CCIE in Austria"

"I would really like to thank you very much. I think that your guidance
during the training and all the tips and tricks that you taught us, made the
difference and help me pass at my first attempt."

"To you again a big THANK YOU, your bootcamp was a real enrichment. I have rarely experienced
something to which I like to remember so well. I will recommend you and your bootcamp further.."

"So far, it was a great time with you, not only from technical point of view. I really enjoyed staying with you and making jokes about the kindergarten ;-) and our beautiful configs. You are a great man. I thank you very much and feel now much more prepared, but i know there are still some gaps which i will fill the next 3 weeks."

"By the way: Thanks once again for the BEST bootcamp"

"Well, maybe the most important thing I learned from you is to pay attention to details and read between the lines... That makes a huge difference on the exam, that's for sure."

"Before the bootcamp I thought that i knew a lot about Routing and Switching after doing many workbooks. Heinz not only demonstrated that I was completely wrong but also challenged me to levels I can never imagine. Heinz Ulm provided the right tools to be successful not only for CCIE but also for my professional job. Heinz made me laugh sometimes so it was a perfect balance with ultra-hard work. I also got to know some CCIE candidates (differente countries, different cultures) that now are my friends with whom I had the opportunity to study with and learn a lot after the bootcamp. If you want to work hard, practice hard, suffer, conquer, be challenged, study hard, learn and at the end be successful Heinz Ulm Bootcamp is the right place."

"The amazing happened, I took your word at heart and studied my ass off and got my number at the first go! CCIE 38666 (even the devil is proud of me). After my bootcamp with you I especially focused on READING the questions and being much more meticulous in my configurations and checking of my work, which you quite bluntly pointed out to me . Since my bootcamp I think I spent at least 60 hours a week practicing and focusing on these weaknesses.
So thanks for contributing to my CCIE!
