TFS-TRAINING
FiberOptic.com has developed comprehensive, integrated Fiber Optic Training programs to meet the needs of designers, installers and users of fiber optic products. Courses are structured for each application's unique needs: telecommunications, cable television, access, local and wide area networks, wireless networks, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and power utilities.
Online + Workshop
We currently offer our training via e-Learning software and traditional classroom based training. For professionals with limited time and travel ability, some of our entry level courses are offered online while some of our more advanced offerings can be taking using a combination of online preparation and classroom based hands-on workshops.
Online Only Courses
 If a course is being offered online on our e-Learning website no hands-on training is required, although some students find an on-site lecture helpful. If you wish to take this course from the comfort of your home or office, please our visit our registration page to request login information. This course will be available immediately.
This on-line approach to Fiber Optic Training and certification allows students to minimize expense, time and travel while learning at their own pace on their own schedule. If you wish to take it on-site instead, please contact one of our representatives at training@fiberoptic.com. If no nearby locations are offered, please use the online option or contact us about scheduling custom training.
Online/Classroom Combination Courses
 Combination courses are currently offered with an online self-paced lecture and a hands-on workshop. This innovative approach to Fiber Optic Training and certification allows students to minimize expense, time and travel while learning at their own pace on their own schedule (by using online e-Learning to complete the lecture portion of the class.) Students may then complete the hands-on portions of the class at any of our scheduled sessions around the world (and can review the material within one year of registering for the course.)
If online training is not ideal for your learning style, a more traditional instructor-lead lecture or questions and answer section is available upon request depending upon location and the size of the class.
Classroom Only Training
 These courses require a hands-on portion and must be taken at one of our training locations. Currently an online option for these courses is not available.
Custom on-site training is always available. Please email training@fiberoptic.com if you are interested in a course tailored to your company and industry.
Please check the Schedule page to see when we will next be in your area.
