Our two-day Fiber Optics I & II Course provides the knowledge you need to work with today's fiber optic applications. The course combines hands-on training with fiber optic theory to make your learning experience as meaningful as possible.

Your training will cover the fundamental tools and techniques required to connectorize fiber, test fiber optic networks, and splice fiber optic cable. You will have the opportunity to use over two dozen tools, including high-end fusion splicers and test equipment.

Training is provided by our nationally renowned instructor, John Bruno. John is in high demand because of his effective teaching style, as well as his expertise in both fiber optics and computer technology. John is also known for his wit and humor, which keeps the course as lively as it is informative.

After completing a brief test the end of the training, you will receive a certificate of completion attesting that you have completed this recognized course of instruction in fiber optics.

The instructional manuals used in your training are yours to keep. They can serve as handy references throughout your fiber optics career.

Security System Training

Security systems represent a growing market for contractors and installers. For those locations where there is sufficient enrollment, FIS can add a third "security training" day to its two-day Fiber Optics I & II Course. Topics in the FIS Security Training Program include the company's innovative StrikeZone security system. StrikeZone uses fiber optic sensors to provide backup protection when camera imaging becomes impossible due to fog, blizzard, heavy rain or destructive acts. The training covers all StrikeZone components, including advanced fiber optic cameras and video recorders with motion-detection and remote-view capabilities. At the heart of the StrikeZone system is the company's patented Fiber Fence Perimeter Monitoring System. Course completers become authorized Fiber Fence installers.
