Just a reminder that I include a lot of information in my courses. So be sure to take notes in addition to watching and listening to each lecture. This is because note taking will enhance your knowledge retention, which will help you to do well in job interviews.
We begin with basic Q&A of optical cable.
Let's learn the 5-Steps of Job Site Safety. Although each job site will have different safety protocols and may require the use of various PPE (personal protective equipment), these five steps will provide you with a good foundation for understanding the core goals of any safety procedures you may encounter.
Testing methods are discussed and explained in this section.
In this lesson you will learn the basics of splitters and taps, two pieces of equipment important to both On Premise and Outside Plant technicians.
Working with coaxial cable is a task common to both, on-prem and outside plant cable technicians. In this lesson, I will teach you the basics of terminating coaxial with a widely used compression-type F-connector. By the way, since the tools and supplies are relatively inexpensive, this is a great way to practice cabling skills at home at your own pace.
Introduction
Welcome to the ONE and ONLY series of ICT Cable Technician courses, only available here on Udemy! These are vocational training courses focused on topics that are likely to be discussed at any interview or on any structural cabling quiz.
Why take this course?
Certifications are good to have. But the #1 key to getting a job in technology is the ability to demonstrate your foundational knowledge and willingness to learn. This course will give you that knowledge and gain you the confidence in interviews to speak about it and your commitment to learning more.
What is included?
These courses are not mere practice exams. But rather an innovative way to learn the trade through a Q&A format of 100 questions, with complete explanations for each correct answer, accompanied by diagrams, photos, and actual hands-on demonstrations. This way, instead of just listening to someone talk, you are prompted to engage by thinking about the answers. In this way, you will learn the knowledge and the actual skills of the trade.
Technology is for everyone
There are no prerequisites to taking this course. However, it is recommended you have already earned your ICT/PREM certification, as working with optical fiber involves several other critical technical skills and responsibilities.
Why ICT?
International Cable Tech Vocational College certifications are for life. There are no expiry dates, and no additional fees to renew.
How to use this course:
Take the course.
Take notes.
Earn your ICT cable technician certification.
Everyone of any age and background can learn IT and gain a higher paying career, and I want you to be one of them.
