1. Go to as many conferences as you can like Storage Decisions or
Storage Networking World to bone up on product offerings, solutions and what's happening in the industry.
2. Read the books by: Marc Farley, W. Curtis Preston, Tom Clark, and Chris Beauchamp. (You can always read mine as well).
3. Go to the vendor Web sites and read the white papers on the subjects listed in the level 2 and level 3 exam criteria.
4. For in-depth learning, read the RFC pages on storage networking.
5. You can always attend the certification training available from Infinity I/O.
