Certifications
ECPI University understands the power of certifications in today's dynamic technology field, and we believe enhancing your marketability is crucial.
To support your journey, ECPI offers discounted vouchers that significantly reduce the cost of certification exams for Fiber Optics Installer (FOI), Fiber Optics Technician (FOT), A+ Certification, Network+ Certification, and Security+ Certification.
Certified Fiber Optic Installer
A Fiber Optic Installer is proficient at the installation of connectors on various types of fiber optic cables using multiple types of connectors, and can perform mechanical and fusion splicing.
Certified Fiber Optic Technician
An FOT can effectively locate faults in a fiber optic cable, mated connector pair, or splice as well as evaluate optical fiber performance, mated connector pair performance, or splice performance for compliance with TIA-568.
Security+
The CompTIA Security+ cert validates essential skills in threat management, risk mitigation, and network security.
A+ (Core 1 & 2)
Core 1 covers essential hardware, networking, and troubleshooting skills. Core 2 covers operating systems, security, and troubleshooting. Both together prepare you for IT support and help desk roles.
Network+
The CompTIA Network+ certification proves foundational skills in networking, troubleshooting, and security, ideal for entry-level IT professionals.
