This Certified Advanced Fiber Optic Installer course is designed for those who layout, install or maintain fiber optic cabling systems. It identifies you as an Certified Advanced Fiber Optic Installer able to demonstrate a practical knowledge of fiber optic theory, codes, standards and practices widely accepted in the fiber optics industry. In addition, this training incorporates five days of individual hands-on training validating advanced fiber optic installer skills, including fiber terminations, cable preparations, fusion splicing, outside plant enclosures, high count armored and non-armored cable, OTDR and optical loss testing. These skills are applicable to all the requirements to safely and competently install, maintain and test fiber optic cabling systems. This Certified Advanced Fiber Optic Installer course is currently offered with a self-paced, online lecture. This innovative approach to Fiber Optic Training and certification allows students to minimize expense, time and travel by learning at their own pace, on their own schedule (using online e-Learning to complete the lecture portion of the class.) Students may then complete the hands-on portion 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.)
