Demonstrate the highest levels of knowledge, skills and competency in fibre optic cable installation, termination and testing to the highest quality whilst complying to industry best practice and standards to ensure a right first-time approach.
It’s a comprehensive six-day program that blends a perfect mix of technical knowledge and practical activities for fibre optic component installation. It proves that an individual is qualified to undertake fibre optic cable installation projects to the highest calibre whilst working to the current national and international industry standards and industry best practice. During the program learners will be provided a valuable opportunity to access the latest industry standards.
The CNCI® certification is awarded on successful completion of both the CNCI® Optical Fibre and the CNCI® Copper Cabling programs.
The CNCI® certification has become the industry preferred certification for network cable installation and is specified as a requirement on many job profiles and installation project contracts. In addition, manufacturers, major installation companies, associations and consultants endorse the certification knowing that it provides the right level of technical knowledge, competence and confidence to the industry. In recognition of the CNCI® certification many manufacturers also award accreditations towards their product warranties.
On successful completion of the CNCI® Optical Fibre Cabling program it is recommended that you attend the CNCI® Copper Cabling program to secure the official CNCI® certification. Following this you are encouraged to continue your professional development by advancing your knowledge and skills to gain further official certifications and qualifications by progressing through The Global Digital Infrastructure Education Framework which maps education programs to career advancement throughout the network infrastructure and data centre sectors.
The CNCI® Optical Fibre Cabling program consists of 213 pages of rich technical content of learning and reference material.
