Business Name

Internetwork Expert

What do you do?

INE has been in business for the past seven years with the goal of preparing candidates to pass the Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) Lab Exam. The core of our business is our dedication to helping students pass. We provide students with a variety of training methods from workbooks to live onsite classes taught by experts in the field.

Do you have specific size requirements for the icons or buttons?

Each product will need to have three different sizes:
256x256, 135x135, 75x75

How many different icons and/or buttons do you need designed?

What is your industry?

Network Training

Describe the target audience for your icon or button design

Our customer base is both domestic to the US and extends to over 176 countries worldwide.

What 3 things would you like to communicate to your audience through your icon or button design?

1) Should be a metaphor for the product.
2) Product components.

What icon or button design styles do you like?

Clean design that clearly illustrates the concept of the product. The images should not be "boxed in" (for example: http://www.gradedlabs.com/media/catalog/product... ). Instead the images should be more like (http://www.ine.com/assets/img/products/vo_wkbks...) and (http://www.ine.com/assets/img/products/training...). Use these images just as a reference.

What colors do you want to see in your icon or button design?

Be creative

What colors do you NOT want to see in your icon or button design?

n/a

What adjectives should best describe your icon or button design?

n/a

What content must be included in the icon or button design?

We are looking for 9 different product images that can be used generically to cover all of our products. We have the following product types:
1) Workbooks
2) Live Online Classes
3) Recorded Online Class
4) Rack Rentals
5) Training Packages
6) Mock Labs Exams (Practice exams for the actual hands on Cisco lab)
7) Online quizes/flashcard
8) Audio lectures
9) Recorded Offline Lecture

Do you have additional requirements or links you'd like to share?

Our website: http://www.ine.com

Brief updates

30-Aug-10 5:06 p.m. GMT: For some clarification: We are making each product page contain only one product. Right now you can see that we have multiple products per page (http://www.ine.com/self-paced/ccie-routing-swit...).

We would like the new product images to fit within the current color scheme of the site.

Some of these products clearly need more explanation:
1) Workbooks are either electronic or printed books that give the student hands on training with the actual lab. Students do tasks in the workbook which is basically opening a telnet session and login to a Cisco rack.

4) Referring back to 1) this is the physical equipment that is rented in order to complete tasks in the workbook.

5) Training packages are a bundle of the most common training products for a particular track.

6) Mock Labs are basically, a rack rental, a set of particular tasks and a timer. Work on the rack is then graded and the results are sent to the student. Sample: (http://www.ine.com/mocklabs/v3/rs_ccie_lab1.htm)

7) Student is asked multiple choice questions and gets graded and shown the correct answers.

9) The main difference between a offline lecture and a online lecture is that offline lectures are not recorded with a live audience. This means the content is more focused on topic, but does not have the question and answer sections that come from live online classes.
