General Information on Training OptionsTraining Language

The official language for all training is English. However, we aim to providemost of our courses in any language requested, either using our own instructorsor via interpreters.

Training Documentation

All training documentation is written in English. All instructions anddocumentation for equipment, etc., handled during the course is distributed toparticipants during the course.

Size of Classes

The size of each class is limited to ensure that participants are able to take fulladvantage of the equipment used during training, and thus assure the highestquality for the training provided. Normal class size is 8-16 participants.

Examinations

After successful completion of a course, the participants receive a certificate thatverifies their attendance. A complete certification procedure involving testing theparticipant’s knowledge is available on request.

Required Equipment

A fully equipped classroom with at least one whiteboard and an overheadprojector is needed for all courses. For practical technical courses, equipment isneeded to complete exercises. Generally, it is not possible to use equipment fromsystems in operation, since the exercises involve changing the configuration ofthe system. For this reason, practical technical courses are normally conducted atan Ericsson Training Center.

IntroductionThe advanced technology used in modern telecommunications systems is verydemanding for those involved in the running and management of a mobilenetwork. This means that training for all staff involved in such activities must beof a high quality.

As the world’s biggest supplier of GSM, we at Ericsson know how to help ourcustomers get the most out of their networks. Moreover, we acknowledge that allour customers are unique, as are their competence requirements. That is why weoffer more than just a standardized approach to training.

As an Ericsson customer, you will have our support in all phases of yourbusiness. We will help you to identify your competence needs and guide yourstaff towards appropriate training, whether you are setting up a new network ormaintaining one already in operation.

PortfolioOur learning-product portfolio provides competence development for allcategories of staff and all levels within the organization. Where there is a specificneed that is not covered by our standard learning products, we can offer acustomized solution.

In addition to product-oriented learning products, Ericsson also offers a set oftask-oriented learning products. Our task-oriented learning is based on cases andclearly defined tasks for the students. In order to ensure that the cases can besolved, all documentation and systems will be available. The instructors willwork as guides or coaches for the students by providing guidance as to where asolution can be found. When necessary, the instructor will provide facts andinformation. The provision of this kind of training ensures that staff will onlyrequire a short time to put what they have learnt into practice.

Multimedia/Web-Based LearningAs an alternative to instructor-led learning products and instructor-supportedlearning products it is also possible to study using the Multimedia Technique.

Ericsson has pioneered the use of Multimedia/ Web-Based Learning(MBL/WBL). A range of our learning products is available on CD-ROM and/oras a Web-Based solution for use in accordance with the individual employee’srequirements.

A selection of Web-Based Learning products can be accessed through:http://learning.ericsson.net

Learning ConsultancyEricsson believes in providing the right learning product at the right time, tailor-made to suit the customer’s needs. This, as we see it, is a prerequisite for thesuccessful operation of a mobile network.

In order to ensure a solution that is both tailor-made and cost-efficient, westrongly recommend that a training plan be worked out together with an EricssonLearning Consultant.

The training plan will focus on relevant areas of work within an operator’sorganization, and suitable Learning Programs will be created according to thetasks being performed in different areas by different categories of staff.

For the assistance of a Learning Consultant, please contact your nearest RegionalTraining Center.

Regional Training Centers are located in:
