Flexible Learning Options

Our experience has proven that instructor-led training, whether delivered in person or remotely via a digital classroom, is the best way to forge Network Experts.  In fact our remote learning courses have delivered even higher certification pass-rates than our other training options.

Our instructors are technical, experienced engineers first and articulate educators second.  It takes that unique skill set to dissect the complex technical topics defined by MEF Technical Committee(s) and present them clearly and simply, so that they can be learned and understood.  Our faculty, active and emeritus, is entirely made up of these uniquely talented educators.  When you attend one of our lectures, you’ll gain the background and perspective of not only how things are defined in the standards, but why.

The depth and breadth of the technical presentation of MEF standards is what sets The Academy apart.  You simply can’t get that level of explanation from on-line study materials, or a “jack-of-all classes” style facilitator who lacks the hands-on experience that comes from an “engineer-first” approach to our required faculty qualifications.

Our award-winning approach combines expert lectures (available both live and demand via video) that transcend on-line study tools or dry text-book presentations of the material.  Educational institutions exist for a reason – because they work.  Don’t underestimate the cost of time wasted by trying to use inefficient or inaccurate cheap on-line study material.  Some  may get lucky enough to squeak through an exam, but they’ll lack the knowledge and expertise required to make them more productive at their job.  The value is in the knowledge, not the credential.

We also offer self-paced programs leveraging recorded lectures, quizzes and other on-line  tools to provide you with a flexible portfolio of training options to meet your requirements and learning preferences.
