Fiber Optic Boot Camp

Monday, November 04 2024 to Friday, November 08 2024 at 08:00 to 17:00  Add Fiber Optic Boot Camp to Goggle Calendar

This five-day hands-on course will guide participants through completing three industry-standard credentials for fiber optic technicians.

The Workforce Solutions department at Jackson State Community College will host its seventh Fiber Optic Boot Camp on November 4-8, 2024. The five-day hands-on course will guide participants through completing three industry-standard credentials for fiber optic technicians.

The boot camp at JSCC resulted from requests from area utility and telecom companies. Matthew Coffman at Jackson Energy Authority notes, “The fiber optic boot camp at Jackson State has provided JEA with high-quality fiber training with the convenience of keeping our technicians local. Our techs routinely attend the course as it’s offered.”

BDI DataLynk conducts the boot camp, which is sanctioned by the Fiber Optic Association to provide standards-based instruction, which the U.S. Department of Labor recognizes.

The five-day course will be held November 4-8 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at JSCC’s McWherter Center in Jackson. To learn more and to register, visit http://registration.xendirect.com/jscc/coursedisplay.cfm?schID=16673 or contact John at 731-425-8826 or jmccommon@jscc.edu.
