This first in the distribution design series of courses teaches you fundamentals of structured cabling systems and familiarizes you with cabling pathways and spaces, different type of cabling, how to work with contractors, how to evaluate the work and how projects are implemented.

DD100 topics include: Structured Cabling systems :Codes, standards and regulations: Media ; Electrical; protection; Firestopping; Cabling system development; work inspection; Movies; add or changes; Retrofits; Project implementation.

ESS 100 is the first course in the electronic safety and security (ESS) series. ESS discusses trends and expertise in security areas that apply to information transport systems (ITS) and the integration of safety and security systems. Information is provided from both the security and ITS industries so that professionals in both industries will have a common understanding of each other’s roles in designing and implementing ESS systems. This course is based on the Electronic Safety and Security Design reference Manual  (ESSDRM),2nd Edition. ESS100 will benefit you if you have less than two years of ESS experience or if you need a good refresher of the basics.
Preliminary course topics include an overview of: Security principles; Design Process; Access Control systems; Surveillance systems; Intrusion detection systems; Fire and alarm systems; Network systems.

Beginning January 2010, this course will fulfill a requirement for the ITS Structured Design Introductory Series Certificate.

This first in the network series of courses enables you to enhance your professional status through the study and understanding of local area networks (LANs) and interworks. The fundamentals of data networking are explained using a practical, real world approach. DA100 is a 2-Day course recommended for anyone requiring an overview of data networks and their influence on cabling systems designs. Course topics include an overview of network: Architecture; Hardware; Software; Applications; Connectivity; wired and wireless; Communications; Protocol; Design; Security; Standards

The first course in the series of Outside plant (OSP) classes leading to the OSP specialist. OSP is the information transport systems (ITS) cabling infrastructure, located on a customer’s property, required to transport information between buildings or other structures. You will become familiar with OSP safety issues, regulations, codes and standards –making organizations. The different types of OSP cabling will be desribed, along with the pathways and spaces required for muti-building cabling distribution, Underground direct –buried and aerial distribution systems will also be covered.

The first in the wireless series of courses, WD100 covers the wireless communications, with emphasis on cellular and wireless local area network (WLAN) technologies.
Course topics include: General considerations of wireless design, Wireless history, Frequency, wavelength and the electromagnetic spectrum, Radio frequencies, spectrum allocation, Wireless standards, Point–to-point (PTP) systems, Point-to-mutipoint systems, Cellular technologies, WLAN technologies.
