Career tracks

Pick the job you want, not just the exam

Each track is built backwards from the role it leads to: the lessons, labs and interview questions that show up when you actually sit the interview.

We publish one track at a time and finish it. Order of arrival is decided by the people on the waiting list - tell us what you need.

Live

The complete CCNA: network fundamentals, switching, routing, IP services, security and automation. Every module ends in a browser CLI lab where you configure the device yourself, not watch someone else do it.

Questions

1

Network Fundamentals

How data actually moves: OSI and TCP/IP, Ethernet, IPv4/IPv6 addressing, subnetting and the CLI.

2

Network Access

Switching behaviour: VLANs, 802.1Q trunks, spanning tree, EtherChannel and wireless basics.

3

IP Connectivity

Routing: routing tables, static routes, OSPFv2 single-area and first-hop redundancy.

4

IP Services

DHCP, DNS, NAT, NTP and quality of service - the services that make a network usable.

5

Security Fundamentals

Device hardening, AAA, access control lists and Layer 2 attack mitigation.

6

Automation and Programmability

REST APIs, data formats, controller-based networking and where Python fits for an engineer.

What you can actually type

  • VLANs, trunks, native VLAN, allowed lists
  • EtherChannel (LACP), PortFast, BPDU Guard
  • Static routes, floating statics, OSPFv2
  • DHCP pools and relay, NAT/PAT, NTP
  • Named ACLs, port security, DHCP snooping

Labs validate the resulting device state, not the exact words you typed. Two different correct command sequences both pass.

How it works

Learn โ†’ Practice โ†’ Certify โ†’ Get hired

Four steps, in that order. Most platforms stop after step one and wonder why nobody passes.

  1. STEP 1

    Learn

    Short interactive lessons. Read a concept, answer a question about it immediately, then see the CLI output that proves it.

  2. STEP 2

    Practice

    Type real IOS commands into a simulated device. Configure VLANs, routes, ACLs and NAT until it is muscle memory.

  3. STEP 3

    Certify

    Mock exams weighted like the real blueprint, with per-topic breakdowns that tell you exactly what to revise.

  4. STEP 4

    Get hired

    Projects, interview questions and a verifiable record of everything you built - ready to show a hiring manager.

Momentum engine

XP, streaks, badges and a Nigerian leaderboard

Consistency beats intensity. The platform tracks daily streaks, awards XP for real work, and ranks you against engineers in your own region - because competing locally is what keeps people coming back.

Questions

Straight answers

Do I need my own Cisco equipment?

No. The labs run entirely in the browser against a simulated IOS device. You type real commands and the simulator keeps device state, so your VLANs, routes and ACLs behave the way they would on hardware. Many students still buy a used switch later, but it is not required to pass.

Is this an exam dump?

No, and we will not build one. Every question is written around the published exam blueprint and explains the reasoning. Memorising answers does not survive the real exam, and a dump would put your certification at risk.

How does the free tier work?

Module 1 of CCNA is free in full, including the first two labs. You also get 20 practice questions a day. No card required, no trial timer.

Can I pay without a dollar card?

Yes. In Nigeria you pay in Naira by bank transfer to our Opay account (details on the Pricing page). Outside Nigeria, prices are in US dollars. Your plan is unlocked once the payment is confirmed.

Do you offer certificates?

You get a EthernetQuest completion certificate for each course, with a verifiable link. That is not a Cisco certification - only Cisco issues CCNA. What we give you is the practical evidence that you can do the work.

How do teams use it?

The Team plan assigns certifications to staff, tracks completion per person, and reports engagement. It is aimed at IT departments and training academies running cohorts.

Start with Module 1 today. It is free.

Two hours in, you will have configured a switch from the command line, answered your first subnetting questions and earned your first XP. That is the whole point of learning by doing.
