eLABS: TELCORDIA TRANSFORMS PC INTO VIRTUAL TRAINING LAB
by Anonymous

LISLE, ILL. - June 10, 2002 - Students of telecommunications can now immerse themselves in an instructor-led training session, then move into the lab for exposure to practical application -- and accomplish all of it with a CD called eLabs. This skills-based training in the form of e-learning from Telcordia covers two new courses on Digital Signal Level and 3 (DS1 and DS3) testing.

eLabs transforms the student's PC into a high-tech, virtual classroom and lab open for learning all the time. Through a blend of classroom lectures and lab equipment demonstrations, eLabs delivers job-critical, skills-based training in an easy-to-access, self-paced, interactive format. Without traveling or staying away for the job too long, students spend their time in a virtual Telcordia training classroom, learning from technical experts, then visiting a virtual Telcordia training lab for close-up looks at equipment related to their subject.

Students control the pace, topic selections, and lesson sequencing. They also have the ability to review questions, focus extra study, print materials, and create a personalized reference binder.

The two courses on DS1 and 3 testing are available separately or as a series totaling about six hours. They go beyond basic overviews and instill skills related to installation, provisioning, and maintenance that personnel in central offices, outside plant, test centers, and work centers can immediately apply to carry out their daily responsibilities.

The DS1 - Testing course addresses the concepts of high-capability digital services operating at the DS1 rate of 1.544 Mbps. The DS3 - Testing course addresses DS3 facilities, services, and testing procedures that support DS3 circuits.
