The Associate Certification is the starting point for the Nokia Bell Labs 5G Certification Program designed for students needing to understand basic 5G concepts and frameworks. Associate level certification provides foundational information on the key business issues, fundamental principles and technical pillars of 5G. We build upon that with the essential 5G networking, cloud, slicing and security technologies and discuss how they interweave to realize the business potential of a 5G solution.

Geared toward Networking professionals, the Nokia Bell Labs 5G Networking Course will go deeper into the Access, Core and Transport topics, the three domains of 5G Networking. In order to better understand the end-to-end nature of 5G, the course also explores Cloud and Slicing, and examines real-word Use Cases and Network deployment.

The 5G Distributed Cloud Networks course, part of the Professional Level of the Nokia Bell Labs 5G Certification Program examines the Distributed Cloud architecture. This course delves into its underlying technologies, resource planning, operations and service automation attributes, and explores how it interworks as a vital part of industry 4.0 use cases, essential for bringing them to life.

The 5G Industrial Automation Networks course, part of the Professional Level of the Nokia Bell Labs 5G Certification Program, delves into the relevance of safety, productivity and efficiency, the three underlying business drivers of Industrial Automation. With these central drivers, the course will examine how essential 5G access, network and digital technologies enable Industrial Automation. In addition, the course will introduce and work through real case studies and industrial automation deployments to reinforce your understanding of how 5G enables industry’s key business imperatives.

The 5G Secured Networks course, part of the Professional Level of the Nokia Bell Labs 5G Certification Program examines the role of security in 5G systems, examines different security threats and to protect against network security threats in the 5G world. Additionally, we will look at specific case studies to further our knowledge of security.

The Nokia Bell Labs 5G Network Slicing course is part of the Professional level learning offer. This course will examine the role of network slicing in 5G deployments, its business benefits to both operators and enterprises, how slicing works across the core, radio and transport domains, and how end-to-end orchestration and automation works seamlessly across these domains to provide slicing services.

Additionally, the course will look at specific case studies through which we will apply our knowledge of network slicing.

The Nokia 5G RAN Professional Certification is where 5G Mobile Access engineers start their certification journey. It is designed for both the experienced radio engineer with a 4G background, and for those new to radio access networks. It provides the basic 5G New Radio knowledge and 5G Mobile Access product skills required to successfully complete common field, operational & radio design tasks.
