Many have speculated about this type of a new “Master” certification for quite some time now; what the exam could look like, how many CCIE’s or a combination of CCIE/CCDE would you need to qualify, if the results of your “exam” would have to be defended before a panel of Cisco DE’s (Distinguished Engineers), and many other ideas, but until now nothing has materialized.
Well, below are some screenshots taken of what appears to be a slip on the part of the web developers for the Cisco Learning Network Portal site, which by the time you read this and click on it – may very well have been taken off. But I am sure the first hundred or so folks that read this blog and click on it will be able to verify that it was there. UPDATE: Link Taken Down!! That didn’t take long (like within 5 minutes of my posting this). Something is afoot!
(Forgive the break in the picture – I had to scroll down to get the whole site to show it was actually the real site :))

Gentlemen (and Ladies), let the rumor mill begin!
Cheers!

This is probably the response to Microsoft’s Microsoft Certified Architect (MCA). If so, it would cost a bomb to get yourself certified.
