Cisco Systems believes that knowledge is the most potent and renewable resource for gaining a competitive advantage. That`s why Cisco steps up to the "knowledge crisis" challenge by introducing Cisco Interactive Mentor (CIM) - a family of innovative knowledge transfer solutions that offers a broad-based, interactive learning approach. CIM offers a line of self-paced CD-ROM-based products that feature technology-specific tutorials, Cisco expert input, and simulated practice labs that are complemented by a Web site offering online content support and e-learning resources. Using this integrated self-paced and interactive approach, users can help build a solid technology knowledge base and keep networking expertise fresh.
CIM products enable Cisco customers to:
Better understand the complexities of networking technologies
More effectively deploy their Cisco network products
Maximize performance and availability from their Cisco hardware
Lay the foundation for technology migration and growth
Dynamically and interactively build knowledge bases with access to a growing body of Cisco network knowledge
Each CIM product includes HTML-formatted information on a specific networking technology with examples of how Cisco products are used to deliver these technologies. These concepts are reinforced in network simulated configuration and troubleshooting labs allowing users to interact with the Cisco command-line interface (no hardware connection required). The user is given background information, reference links, and a series of configuration and troubleshooting tasks to perform — applying the same methodologies used by the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers.
To enhance and extend the value of the CIM products, Cisco offers a complementary CIM Web site (www.cisco.com/go/cim). Users can directly participate in this web site to access e-learning resources, product news, and provide feedback and evaluations. CIM users are entitled to online content support and access to product feedback forms.
Key Features and Benefits
Self-paced CD-ROM delivery — CIM is easily accessible from a desktop or laptop PC with a CD-ROM drive.
Web-based technology — CIM incorporates standard Web technology, such as HTML, Java, and Real Audio. All content and simulations are accessible from within a Java-enabled Web browser.
Cisco expert input — CIM content is based on actual scenarios encountered by Cisco TAC and Cisco engineers. Users learn the same configuration techniques and troubleshooting methodologies used by Cisco TAC engineers to support Cisco customers.
Interactive Cisco network simulation environment — users interact with virtual routers, switches, and other network devices on a virtual network that look and perform like actual devices. No network connections are needed.
Hyperlinked references — CIM provides instant access to network terms, commands, and additional instructional material.
Guided configuration labs — CIM provides hands-on experience with Cisco product configurations using an optional audio guide.
Simulated troubleshooting exercises — CIM reinforces instruction using examples based on actual situations encountered by Cisco TAC.
Pop quizzes and tips — these features reinforce understanding of course material.
Online content support — Cisco support interaction clarifies or helps you better understand CD content.
Access to CIM Web site - extends the knowledge experience through other e-learning resources and interactive and expert forums.
Using the combined e-learning/product approach, CIM solutions provide a continuous stream of Cisco networking knowledge for people who plan, configure, deploy, and troubleshoot Cisco-based networks - IT managers, IT support engineers, network engineers, network technicians, sales engineers, and system engineers.
CIM products are invaluable for current managers and employees who need to update their knowledge or add new skills such as learning Cisco TAC troubleshooting techniques, preparing for Cisco product training classes and certification tests, or presenting information in seminars or other learning environments. New hires will find that CIM products provide a solid knowledge foundation for their organization`s Cisco technology investment. For organizations that are planning a technology migration, CIM offers a cost-effective vehicle for preparing staff ahead of time and smoothing the entire migration process.
For Cisco partners, CIM represents a cost-effective way to deliver high-quality Cisco knowledge to front-line engineers and support technicians who need to maximize time spent with customers. CIM represents both an opportunity to add value to existing service and support options and to generate incremental revenue through the reselling of CIM products.
Each CIM product is thoroughly researched using internal Cisco technology training materials, public domain, technology-standards publications, technical documentation and notes, and input from Cisco engineers. This material is cross-referenced with Cisco TAC methodologies, simulation labs, and other reference materials to maximize the user experience and knowledge gain.
Each CIM CD-ROM comes ready to use on a desktop or laptop computer with a CD-ROM player and standard Java-enabled Web browser. No special network hardware or connections are required for the hands-on labs. The CIM product will even scan the user`s computer to verify that the proper browser and audio player software is installed. And, because CIM leverages the Web browsing skills familiar to Internet users, no special instructions are required.
Enterprises can easily scale the use of CIM products as needed by purchasing additional copies or a volume purchase multi-user license that can be deployed across a corporate intranet for access by anyone who needs them at any time.
CIM configuration and troubleshooting labs allow users to practice the same techniques and methodologies used by Cisco TAC engineers to support Cisco customers. The scenarios in these labs are based on actual customer experiences encountered by Cisco TAC. And, if you have questions while using a CIM product, you can post them to the CIM Web site where a Cisco engineer will address them.
CIM provides cost-effective learning with the benefits of online access to Cisco engineers, expert forums, and community participation to extend the CIM products. The convenient CD-ROM or multi-user intranet deployment format is a great complement to other forms of learning serving as a refresh, reference, or prerequisite. CIM products also serve as a cost-effective learning option in cases where more expensive or logistically improbable options might be inappropriate.
The CIM Web site, part of the public area of CCO under Service and Support, is designed to serve as an interactive, participatory virtual community for CIM users and those considering using CIM solutions. This electronic community serves as a focal point for customers to extend the value of using their knowledge transfer experience by enabling them to obtain product information, get updated product news, share knowledge management and e-learning resources, and view online demos.
For purchasing information, visit the CIM Web site at www.cisco.com/go/cim, then click on the CIM Purchasing button.
For more information about other CIM products, visit the CIM Web site at www.cisco.com/go/cim or contact your Cisco representative.
