The economy soured the market for CCIEs, not the schools. Before the
internet bubble burst, if you could spell router, you could get $50 -
$60K straight out of college with no experience. Nowadays you can
author an RFP, have a Masters degree in Computer Engineering, and have
years of experience and still get snubbed by picky employers.

It's the economy.
