What is the Open Awards Level 3 Fibre Splicing, Installation & Testing course?

Open Awards Level 3 Award in Fibre Installation and Testing is a Communications Networking course which provides an industry-recognised award, approved for the ECS Network Installer (Level 3) Card.

This course provides delegates with the opportunity to learn both theoretical and practical skills of fibre optic cabling. Learners will gain insight into the communications cabling industry and an understanding of the services offered as well as terminology, health & safety regulations, and the skills to install fibre optic cables.

Who should attend?

This course is suitable for those who have prior experience in fibre optic splicing and testing. It is ideal for engineers who are looking to satisfy the requirements for the ECS Network Infrastructure Installer (Level 3) card (also referred to as a ‘gold’ card).

For those who have not previously completed any Level 2 certifications, we recommend taking this in conjunction with our City & Guilds 3668-02.

What does the course cover?

The course aims to provide learners the knowledge and understanding of safe working practices, including basic principles required to work in the telecommunications industry. Learners will also develop a deeper knowledge and understanding of installation, splicing, termination and testing of fibre optic cable in patch panels/equipment racks. This would usually take place in an indoor/external environment involving multimode and single-mode end-to-end cabling.

How do you complete the course?

This course consists of 4 weeks online learning followed by 3 days attendance at our facility.

Our online learning portal consists of pre-recorded lessons and assessment activities. These must be 90% completed prior to attendance for admission to our facility for the practical training. We advise a minimum of 20 hours are allocated for the online work though individual learning hours can vary.

At our centre you will need to complete splicing and testing practical assessments and a Theory Workbook to achieve the qualification.

Practical details:

Our Telecommunications Training Centre is based in Melksham in Wiltshire.

We can take on a maximum of 8 delegates on each course. This is so each student receives 1-1 time with the trainer and so there is enough equipment for each student to use individually. Our practical dates consist of hands-on workshops with each piece of equipment, including the latest industry product ranges from VIAVI and Sumitomo.

Extended Support and Aftercare:

At Fibreplus Telecommunications College we pride ourselves on our extended support once our students have completed their course and are out working in the real world. Our Support Team and Trainers are always happy to speak over the phone and answer any questions if support is needed after the course has ended.

  • I came to Fibreplus for a FOA Technician course, expecting to gain practical knowledge in working with optical fibers and pass the international FOA certification. To be honest, the training I underwent at Fibreplus exceeded all my expectations. The instructor Pete, a kind and professional person, guided the group in an excellent manner, answered questions and helped at every stage of the preparation for the tests and the practical work at the laboratory stations. The equipment we worked with was of the highest level and perfectly maintained. The preparation for the test was excellent and the printed study material we received helped us prepare properly. Thank you to the team, to the kind Stefanie who guided the training process until we arrived at the facility in a friendly and patient manner, and to Pete the excellent instructor.

  • “A great training provider. Did the 1 week fibre course and really enjoyed it. The tutor was very knowledgeable and was a great teacher. The equipment we used was all top grade, was a lot of hands on practical work which helped break up the day from the theory stuff. Would certainly recommend Fiberplus to anyone looking for training in this field.

  • “I recently attended Fibreplus for the Fibre Optics City and Guilds 3667-02 5 day Course and left on the Friday extremely happy with everything they provided. The Course was great with all contents fulfilling my expectations. I would highly recommend this Course and provider to anyone interested in getting into Fibre Optics or using it as a refresher. All staff at Fibreplus were great and not only did they provide a good, in-depth course on Fibre Optics they also provided a rapid and very professional service for supplying Hire Test Equipment. I will definitely be using Fibreplus in the future and will also be passing on their details and services to my network within the Oil and Gas Industry.
