Bust the buzzwords and demystify the jargon to get up to speed on today's converged broadband IP telecommunications: the technologies, players and services, the underlying ideas... and how it all fits together.
Live, instructor-led training, where you can ask questions and interact, is the best you can get.
Being in a class, with an expert instructor, ensures that you will stay focused, away from distractions, and learn.
This is the best kind of training you can get. It's backed up with a high-quality printed course workbook and optional bonus TCO Certification and online refresher courses.
You can ask questions and get clarifications. Discuss and understand the latest technology and industry news in-class. Share your situation with class members, find out what others are implementing.
In-person instructor led training classes are the gold standard. Get out of the office and away from distractions. Class participants often network, and go out to lunch together. Live Online or virtual instructor-led training classes are the next best thing.
In both cases, you'll be part of a class taught by a professional instructor who will keep you focused, so you can learn telecom and be more confident.

- Austin Thompson, NHC
On Google:
★★★★★ This course was probably one of the best courses I have taken on telecom in many years.
I liked the vast amount of knowledge the instructor had and his ability to make that knowledge so easy to grasp. Excellent from start to finish. – Rich Schadman, Telecommunications Security Specialist, Sandia National Laboratory
★★★★★ Absolutely excellent class! I had basic knowledge of "olden days" telephony and even less basic knowledge of all the newfangled technologies. A promotion at work necessitated that I get up to speed and this course was just the ticket! I cannot express enough how much I learned and can now understand others in the field. Unlike many technical (and other) courses or classes, when you can find yourself dozing off, this class was totally engaging. I recommend it highly. – John
★★★★★ This is training that most everyone in the telecom industry should get at some point and better if it is early in their career. This BOOT CAMP training was beneficial in clarifying meanings of industry standards and industry terms, explained without being influenced by specific company usage.
It is also a good refresher of current meanings for the more experienced workers as our industry evolves. The instructor was very easy to learn from and very knowledgeable. – Russ Zinter on Google
