The RWM Online fiber optic training course is the most comprehensive online fiber optic training course you will ever take available online. It covers all aspects of fiber optics including networks, standards, national electrical code, grounding and bonding and wiring.

The 18 modules use state of the art multimedia (flash player) consisting of videos, interactions, and learning exercises. See a DEMO of Module 11, Optical Principles & Properties of Light.

Dr. Sally Ride, the first American woman NASA astronaut in space, introduces all the modules with incredible images from the Space shuttle.

A portion of the course fee goes to the Dr. Sally Ride foundation to encourage students in math and science.

The online fiber optic course should be completed in 40 hours, however after the initial login, it will be active for 6 months. Many of the Fiber Optic Modules are very time consuming especially the ones with demos on splicing and the OTDR.

Each module has review questions and a final exam may be taken after completion of all the modules.

Passing the final exam means that you have passed the written requirements for National Certification in Fiber Optics.

You will receive a Certificate of Completion from RWM Online verifying that you have passed the course.
