Certification course – installing, managing and providing support for the UniFi SDN system
This certification course will explain how to install, manage and provide support for Ubiquiti UniFi solutions. It will provide an overview of the Ubiquiti UniFi product line and teach you about correct configuration and administration.
Special emphasis is placed on understanding the physical and logical fundamentals, enabling participants to design WLAN networks and identify or resolve potential issues in the future. In addition to general WLAN knowledge, the course also covers the unique features and specific capabilities of the UniFi system.
As this is an official certification course, it will not be possible to cover any topics not on the official agenda.
Target group
The course is aimed at anyone who uses UniFi in customer projects and wishes to be an officially certified Ubiquiti UniFi partner.
Requirements
Basic knowledge in the field of networks and some initial experience with Ubiquiti UniFi.
Course objective
At the end of the course, participants will take a short test covering the content they have been taught and everyone who passes the test will receive official UniFi certification (UWA). Once you pass the test, you will receive corresponding banners and logos which you can display on your website and use in other marketing activities to show that you are a certified partner. Obtaining the certification will also mean that you are qualified for larger UniFi projects.
