Learning at Cisco is offering reimbursement for any third-pary testing center-based Cisco exam (sometimes called a “written exam” though there’s very little writing and most button pushing involved) for up to $350 to those who join the Learning@Cisco group on LinkedIn, and who then file a “How Cisco certification helps my career…” message, and acquire the most “Likes” for their posting.

In list form, here’s what’s required:

Step 1: Join Learning@Cisco Linkedin Group. (http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=3443017)
Step 2: Register on Cisco Learning Network (http://www.ciscolearningnetwork.com)
Step 3: In Learning@Cisco Linkedin group, create a post with the following title and write about it.

“How Cisco certification helps my career? <Your CLN username>”

Step 4: Share the post you created in step 3 on your Linkedin profile and ask your contacts/others to ‘Like’ your post.

For more information, please visit Marcus Fan’s May 11 Cisco Learning blog “Win a Cisco Certification Written Exam.” It’s not an onerous amount of work for those planning to take a Cisco exam anyway, and some lucky IT pro will get a free ride thanks to his or her persuasive writing skills, or their ability to work their personal networks.

Good luck!
