Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS), a 3.5 GHz mid-band shared spectrum, offers a low-cost, high-speed broadband option for rural and underserved communities, and for cost-effective private network deployments.

As the demand for this type of wireless infrastructure increases, so does the demand for a trained and certified workforce. And importantly, CBRS installation and performance are governed under FCC Part 96 rules.

To meet this need, Federated Wireless and Learning Alliance Corporation have partnered to provide a CBRS Certified Professional Installer (CPI) certification program. Mobile network operators, wireless internet service providers or even individuals seeking a career in telecom now have access to CPI training that Learning Alliance and Federated Wireless have created to help spawn the market for shared spectrum connectivity.

Kurt Schaubach, CTO, Federated Wireless and Cesar Ruiz, CEO, Learning Alliance Corp. discuss the partnership’s goals and objectives with John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor.
