I'm a
CCIE-"dinosaurus".
I passed the lab on first attempt in
August 1995.
Cisco started counting the CCIE numbers beginning with 1024.
My CCIE number is 1561.
So I was among the first 600 CCIEs worldwide at that time.
At the time of my exam passing there were about 80 CCIEs in europe.
Most of the CCIEs were in US because the program started there.
Since then I
recertified a couple times.
My actual recertification is good until June 2009.
The current CCIE numbers are in the 23000s.
Countries I have travelled to
(now with
many photos)
I have trained
people from various companies and organizations,
as well
as at Cisco Paris, Cisco London and Cisco TAC Brussels
(where
I have done "new-hire"-, CRIC, CID, and
SEDW - system engineers design workshop - classes).

Any doubts about my CCIE status ?
Course comments from students and partners
My bootcamp attendees were coming from these
countries.
Since I'm
conducting my CCIE Preparation Workshops (now called CCIE Bootcamp)
I have trained and prepared over 500 CCIEs
for the exam,
coming from many countries and companies , including Cisco.
" My" CCIEs are spread around the world
