UPDATE: This contest has ended. Thank you to everyone who participated, and congrats to our lucky winners: @NaLi, @APV, @BrickRedRock, @Yeremy-Gonzalez, @normanliu, and @joshwilliams1!   

If you’ll be at Cisco Live next week in Las Vegas, you won’t want to miss your chance to win a seat in a session of our advanced technical training ECMS2 (Engineering Cisco Meraki Solutions Part 2). 🎉 This is a rare opportunity, and we’re delighted to be bringing you this chance. Read on to learn more!

What is this class?

ECMS2 is the second of two courses that will prepare you to earn the Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist Certification. The 3-day virtual instructor-led course includes live demos, guided lab practice, and interactive Q&A, all of which are designed to help you gain the knowledge and skills to confidently plan, design, implement, and operate complex Cisco Meraki solutions. 

During this course, you’ll learn how to:

• Plan for network deployments and integrations using the Meraki platform
• Design Meraki architectures for redundancy, high-density, and scalability
• Implement comprehensive Meraki product features to meet design objectives
• Operate Meraki networks and troubleshoot complex network incidents using the Meraki Dashboard and analytics
  

Are there any prerequisites? 

As ECMS2 is an advanced technical course, it's highly recommended that you have some previous technical Meraki knowledge (such as completing ECMS1 or having equivalent hands-on experience).

For a more detailed list of the knowledge and skills that participants are highly recommended to have before attending the ECMS2 course, review the ECMS2 Prerequisites post.

How does it work?

We’re raffling off 20 seats in total. Winners may be able to choose one of one of 10 spots in a July class or one of 10 spots in a September class, depending on availability. Official dates are still to be determined. 

In order to enter, all you need to do is visit the Meraki Learning Booth #9903 in the World Solutions Center at Cisco Live in Las Vegas, scan the QR code, and fill out the form anytime between 10 am PDT Monday, June 5th and 1 pm PDT Thursday, June 15th. Once you submit the form with your community display name and email address, you’ll be entered into the raffle.

How do I win?

You will have until 1 pm PDT on Thursday, June 15th (06/15/2023) to enter the contest by scanning the QR code and filling out the form. We’ll then draw 20 at random to win a seat to a session of ECMS2 in July or September. Your choice of month may be limited depending on availability.  

Please note that winners must commit to join the selected ECMS2 session if they win the raffle. A last minute cancellation or no-show will mean you give up your seat and won't be able to select another date.

Awesome, I'm so excited that I won this raffle. Just tell me how I should proceed to continue with the process, I am very grateful for the opportunity and excited to take this interesting training.😁 @AmyReyes

Congrats to all winners! 🎉

[AmyReyes]

@Yeremy-Gonzalez no further action on your part is needed! 😊 We will be sharing the list of winners and their preferred month of attendance with the team who schedules training sessions. The Meraki team will add you the list, and confirmations will be sent once it is closer to the date of your session (so for folks who chose September, you may not receive a confirmation email for a while). Winners you can expect an email from us confirming your spot, date and time for the session you selected to join. Hope that helps! We look forward to seeing you at ECMS 2 😁

HI Amy,

Do you know the dates for July and September, if we originally choose September and want to change to July or vice versa, is that possible, thank you!

[AmyReyes]

Hi @normanliu, I do not know the specific dates yet myself, I believe the schedule is still being determined. @FelipePerrone - do you happen to have any more info about that?

And yes, if you'd like to switch the month you chose, that should still be possible. Please let us know asap! 

[normanliu]

Hi Amy,

I might not be available in September depending on the dates, therefore please register me for the July instead, thank you!

[joshwilliams1]

@AmyReyesHi Amy!

Could you provide instructions on how to register?

Thanks!

[AmyReyes]

Hi @joshwilliams1, your info has already been shared with the Meraki team who schedules the trainings, and they are taking care of registration for you. You will receive an email confirmation closer to the date of your session with more information!
