Please
note: receiving this Fiber U
Certificate of Completion does
not include FOA certification or
membership but it does become
documentation of your knowledge
of fiber optics and should be
part of your portfolio of
documented knowledge, other
training and work experience
that can qualify you to apply
for FOA direct CFOT
certification through the FOA
"Work to Cert" program.
For more information on the FOA
and its certification programs,

Continue Your Study: Completing the OSP Cable
Plant Installation
Objectives: From this online new course you should
learn:
What happens after the fiber optic cable is installed -
splicing, termination and testing
At this point the fiber optic cable should be installed
and is ready to be spliced, terminated, tested and
connected to the communications systems. The FOA has
complete technical information and courses on those next
steps.
You can
take a FREE online course, the Fiber
U OSP Course.
If you prefer to read the material yourself online or in a
printed book, go next to The
FOA Online Guide to Outside Plant Fiber Optics which
will cover the remaining installation topics. You can read
the material online or use the printed FOA
Reference Guide to Outside Plant Fiber Optics.
If you are interested in Fiber Optic Network Design, there
is a Fiber
U Course on Fiber
Optic Network Design
and an FOA printed textbook, The
FOA Reference Guide To Fiber
Optic Network Design.
