Live Online Fiber Optic Training
Train With Industry Experts
This unique course allows the student to follow along with an FIS instructor in real-time, this is not a prerecorded course.
Discussions are welcomed with plenty of time for questions, sharing of challenges and successes from the field. Each student after registration will receive via mail “Johnny’s tool box” and the FIS fiber optic manual, a $315.00 value, to follow along with the instructor on different cable construction types along with stripping and preparing a fiber cable for termination or fusion splicing.
Upon completion of the course an FIS certification will be sent to each student. Further eligibility to receive (16) continuing education credits for Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI) credential certification program can be secured by each student who is member of BICSI.
The Live Online course reviews and features some of the latest fiber optic equipment and tools such as power meters, light sources, visual fault locators, Optical Loss Test Sets (OLTS) OTDRs and fusion splicers.

John has more than 20 years of experience training fiber optic professionals. He has trained well over 25,000 students in the two decades as Fiber Instrument Sales lead instructor.
This book was written and compiled by one of the fiber optic industry’s leading instructors, John Bruno.
This training manual can be used as a tool for FIS University instructors during class, as well as a reference for anyone working in the fiber optic field.
The manual begins with the fundamentals of basic fiber optic theory and leads you through connectorization techniques, video microscope operation, power meter & light source theory(OLTS), OTDR theory & testing, and finishes up with fusion splicing. This guide comes with a complete and thorough reference section and troubleshooting guide. Every section goes into great detail about each topic.
The reference material in this book is informative and easy to understand. It is a must-have tool for fiber optic professionals.
