In House Training

In-house training programs, provided for companies that want its syllabus prepared in accordance with the needs of human resources (HR) at their respective companies. The composition of the syllabus can be consulted in advance on Team Training Bureau of ASSI.

GVF Training

ASSI cooperate with the Global VSAT Forum (GVF) provide important fundamental training program for VSAT, broadband, maritime and satellite technicians. The program is endorsed and recommended by major satellite operators. GVF provides an effective blend of simulation, interactive, self-paced online training knowledge, hands-on verification capability, and additional class options.

The program offers several training tracks certified:

  1. For fixed VSAT professionals:  GVF Basic, Advanced, and Specialist Satcom Professional certifications.
  2. For marine VSAT professionals: GVF Marine Satcom Professional certifications.
  3. For marine VSAT operators (crew): GVF Marine Satcom Operator certifications.

In this partnership, GVF also offer introductory online training satellite communications (GVF 500), and can arrange additional training classes on topic. see the brochure (PDF) training offered for a complete list of all GVF training.
