Contents of the City & Guilds Communications Cabling Training Programme
The award  is made up of two separate courses delivered in a standard format, for the level2 award in communications cabling. The programme requires self directed learning of theory and then attendance at our training facility for 5 DAYS.
The theory element is studied in your own time at your own pace and consists of workbooks, review questions supported by video. You then only attend at our training centre once you have completed all of the review tests in the theory material.

The outcomes the training is to facilitate as listed in the City & Guilds Specifications are as follows:
Outcome 1: Identify the safe working practices in communication systems.
Outcome 2: Describe the basic principles of SI units and symbols.
Outcome 3: Describe the basic principles of communication systems.
Outcome 4: Describe the basic principles of data communication.
During the course you will be assessed by qualified trainers, on completion you will be required to take, an on line examination of around 25 multiple choice questions. If you pass the test you will earn the City & Guilds 3667-02 Unit 1 certificate.
Unit 102 Fibre Optic Cabling in an Internal Environment (Splicing in a Lan Datacomm's network)
This unit should be taken by those who would be working with fibre optic cables inside buildings or between buildings for example on Local Area Networks.
This unit is a training centre based training programme concerned with the installation, splicing, use of connectors, termination and testing of fibre optic cable in a data communications environment, usually of low fibre count cables of typically upto 24 fibres. Which are usually terminated in patch panels/equipment racks. This would normally take place in an indoor environment involving multimode LAN and end-to-end cabling.
The outcomes of this training is detailed in the City & Guilds Specifications as follows:
Outcome 1: Work safely with optical fibres in an internal environment.
Outcome 2: Follow recommended installation procedures. .
Outcome 3: Prepare fibre optic cable for fibre connectors and splicing.
Outcome 4: Splice together optical fibres using Fusion splicing and Mechanical splicing.
Outcome 5: Terminate fibre optic cables by fitting connectors.
Outcome 6: Test fibre optic links in accordance to industry standards.
During the course you will be required to complete practical tasks and be assessed by industry approved trainers, on completion you will be required to take, an on line examination of 25 multiple choice questions then you will be awarded City & Guilds 3667-02 component certificate for this unit and the Communications cabling programme certificate.
PROGRESSION
The natural progression would be to complete the remaining units for this award, Units 103 Fibre splicing in Telecoms for those that will be splicing outside. & Unit 104 Copper Cabling. This is for those wanting to work with structured cabling running cat5 twisted pair type cables.
