There are massive national investments in backbone Fiber rollouts in different African Countries. These rollouts demand skilled human resource capital to guarantee the promised returns from properly implemented projects.

AFRALTI as an approved Fiber Optics Training Center, continues to equip technicians and engineers with technical and theoretic skills to get them ready for deployment in the ongoing Broadband initiatives in Africa.

In June 2022, the institute has trained participants from the Kenya Pipeline Company in the Certified Fiber Optics Technician (CFOT) which has seen the technicians gain handson skills as they attended the in-person training at AFRALTI Main Campus.

The CFOT certification has been structured as a general technology certification, not aligned to any specific job function. It is used by all installers, both outside plant and premises installers, two very different applications, plus component manufacturing technicians, network managers, network designers, etc.

AFRALTI remains open to train more participants from fields such as Voice, Data and Video (VDV) and FTTx Technicians; IT and Telecom Engineers, High School leavers aspiring to be Fiber Optic or Premises Cabling Technicians are also welcome. Electronics, Telecom and Computer Engineering Students in their final year will find this course very useful as they prepare for the job market.
