Fiber Optic Training - Master Technician (Self Study Plus 3 day Hands-on Practical session)

 
Training code: FOT-MFOT-OL
Objectives
The Master Fiber Optic Technician (FOT-MFOT-OL) training is the most comprehensive certification training available. It is our complete fiber optic training, encompassing all aspects of our Installer, and Master Splicing and Master Testing Program in an extensive self study and 3 day Hands-on practical session. FiberOptic.com's Master Technician training is the first of its kind in the telecommunications field. It is designed to provide an unmatched, real-life experience with solid classroom instruction. Using various labs designed around installation, splicing, and testing scenarios, we recreate real world environments.

The Master Fiber Optic Technician (FOT-MFOT-OL) training is a perfect compliment for experienced fiber optic installers and technicians looking to seperate themselves from the competition. Featured are advanced hands-on splicing and testing labs demonstrating advanced procedures and techniques. Students work with test equipment from several different manufacturers. The Master Fiber Optic Technician certification identifies professionals who are involved with designing, configuring, installing, testing, and maintaining fiber optic systems.

On-Line Training Course Synopsis
The technology has arrived to allow us to offer an improved training expextensive via a combination of On-Line and Classroom based instruction. Since starting our school strudents alway felt that 4-5 days of training just isn't enough to allow the complex aspects of fiber optics take root in their minds. Therefore, via our On-Line series of classes we are now able to capitalize on a platform which will allow students to review the lecture/presentation portion of the instruction for up to one year from the date of registration. Therefore, this means students can shorten a course by studying at home prior to the 3 day Hands-on practical, or review material for up to one year following the classroom instruction. It's really the best method for deliving a fiber optics class available because of both time savings, and continued reenforcement via review for up to one year.
