Etisalat Academy has introduced the first certified Long Term Evolution (LTE) program in the Middle East region, in partnership with Huawei. The aim is for Etisalat Academy to develop a community of highly skilled and certified professionals who have a comprehensive understanding of LTE pertaining to 'Commercialisation', 'Operation' and 'Maintenance', 'Planning' and 'Optimization'. It provides Etisalat, Etisalat Group and other operators in the region with the business, strategic and technical understanding of the challenges faced in the technical and product areas of LTE. The LTE Certification program helps translate to a faster learning curve for staff, and a quicker deployment and launch of LTE networks.

The program is based on the Huawei Ltd. platform and the practical aspects will include hands-on training of Huawei equipment. For those who will be exposed to other vendors' platforms the program will cover the key technological aspects and provide a solid grounding on the subject. The information will be presented in a way that can quickly be translated to Operational and Maintenance activities across diverse platforms.

David Brennan, General Manager, Etisalat Academy, said, "Globally, Etisalat is an early adopter of technology and is one of a handful of operators internationally to deploy LTE. Following this, Etisalat Academy has agreed to partner with Huawei, one of the leading global telecoms equipment vendors, to develop a leading-edge LTE certification program. This will ensure industry professionals have access to the right knowledge and skills to embrace and leverage the LTE technology."
