Pearson Technologies Incorporated

You will learn how to be successful in fiber optic installation from the Pearson Technologies popular hands on programs. From these programs, trainees have learned professional techniques essential for installation and design of fiber networks. These professional techniques result in successful installation and design of fiber networks. Success in installation means low cost, low power loss and high reliability. Success in design means complete specifications, low cost and reliable operation. The FiberPro 1-5 programs, focused on the needs of those involved in data communications, SANs, LANs, CCTV and security systems, range from 2-5 days to provide installation and design skills at basic and advanced levels. FiberPro 6-9 are 3-5 day programs focused on the needs of those involved in FTTH, FTTC, FTTx systems. Attendance at these installation programs can result in one basic and three advanced professional certifications from the Fiber Optic Association. Programs include: fiber optic cable pulling, routing and dressing; end preparation of indoor and outdoor cables; multimode and singlemode connector installation by 4 methods; connector installation of all common styles; splicing by fusion and mechanical methods of multimode and singlemode fibers; testing by insertion loss, OTDR and reflectance; troubleshooting and certification of fiber networks; and network design, component specification and realistic cost estimation. Students learn the essential basics and subtilties from Mr. Pearson s broad and extensive experience with fibers, cables, connectors, electronics, installation, testing and training. Students learn easily from Mr. Pearson s excellent communication skills, honed from a 28 years of fiber experience, from training more than 6800 people, and from his extensive and frequent writing, speaking and consullting engagements.

FiberPro 1 provides the trainee with all the basic information and installation skills he needs to be successful. Consuming approximately 25 % of the program, lectures cover the basic knowledge needed for field success and for the CFOT certification. The course text, Successful Fiber Optic Installation, is the only text available with all the information required for the four FOA certifications. Consuming approximately 75 % of the program, hands on activities include cable installation and handling, connector installation by 3 or 4 different methods, connector inspection, fusion and mechanical splicing, insertion loss testing, OTDR testing, link certification, and troubleshooting. FiberPro 2 is a two day advanced connector installation program. FiberPro 2 provides the trainee with the knowledge and experience required to qualify for and pass the FOA CFOS/C certification. FiberPro 3 is a three day advanced fiber testing and troubleshooting program. FiberPro 3 provides the trainee with the knowledge and experience required to qualify for and pass the FOA CFOS/T certification. FiberPro 4 is a four day advanced splicing program. FiberPro 2 provides the trainee with the knowledge and experience required to qualify for and pass the FOA CFOS/C certification. FiberPro 7 is similar to FiberPro 1, but with a focus on splicing instead of connector installation. FiberPro 8 and 9 are similar to FiberPro 3 and 4, but with a focus on singlemode and PONs. In addition to training, Pearson Technologies provides technical and consulting.
