JSI 2024 Virtual Bootcamp
Do your employees need training?
Then You Need Virtual Bootcamp
Overview
Over the past year, an unprecedented number of highly motivated individuals have assumed key roles with telecom and broadband providers, many with less background and experience in the industry than those they are replacing. To help equip these newcomers and provide comprehensive training that also benefits industry veterans, JSI will be offering a “bootcamp” training program that will cover the essential aspects of providing voice and broadband services and how these essentials affect those that provide these services.
Our bootcamp training will be held twice during the year, each session lasting nine hours over three days, and covering the same material to allow for more flexibility in scheduling time for your staff to attend. The training will be led by seasoned JSI experts and held virtually for a fee of $2,950 per company per session with no limit to the number of staff that can attend from each company. Sessions will be recorded and accessible to all companies that attend. Companies unable to attend can access the recording for the same fees listed above.
