The networks that provide telecommunications services for individuals and businesses have gone through rapid change in the last few years. Their evolution has been fuelled by the demands for higher capacity coupled with the growth in the use of Internet and mobile services and the need to reduce operating costs.

PTT has just released a new online course that provides a comprehensive introduction to modern telecoms networks. The topics covered range from the capabilities and applications of optical, microwave and satellite links to the structure and benefits of next generation networks and the systems that provide fixed line and mobile telephony.

The PTT “Telecommunications networks” e-learning course is ideal for those joining the sector with a technical role and who will benefit from an appreciation of the role and capabilities of the systems they are responsible for.
