This two day course presumes no previous knowledge or experience of Satellite technology and builds the necessary skills and competences required for a Digital Satellite Installer. The two day course uses a blend of academic knowledge with practical experience of the main techniques, to build confidence in the skill areas for this role. The course develops many of the important techniques associated with Satellite installation and service and explores these through a variety of learning medias. Assessments are used at the end of the course and throughout the presentation to ensure the candidate is progressing satisfactorily.
Although this course requires no previous knowledge, it would be beneficial to any installer who has not received previous formal training in this subject.
