The BICSI Data Centre Design
Consultant certification is now
available in the United Kingdom
Building Industry Consulting Service International, also
known to most as BICSI, has long been respected and
regarded as the global standard bearer for excellence in
information and communication technology (ICT) education
by most serious industry players. Engineers holding a BICSI
accreditation of any sort have always been highly respected
because BICSI has strong connections with industry
standards bodies.
A BICSI accreditation of any sort requires dedication,
competence and has never been an easy option. From
the comprehensive Cabling Installation & Technician
programme through to the highly prestigious Registered
Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD), there has
always been an excellent career path for datacom industry
professionals to follow that provides globally recognised
certification.
There are also more specialised education paths that can
be taken like the Outside Plant (OSP) Designer or Registered
Telecommunications Project Manager (RTPM). Much of the
course content is online and Authorised Design Training
Providers (ADTP) are located around the globe so there is no
need to travel long distances and with open registration you
can progress through much of the training at a speed to suit
other commitments.
