How Important is a FOA-Accredited Certification

When you take a car, you don't just take color into account, do you? At the top of your head is the mark. Talk a lot about yourself; a status symbol to place. Get in the car and you know that people build their impression of what they see. Getting an acclaimed play all over the world makes you outperform others, as in many other things. Obtaining certification from an internationally accredited institution is almost the same.

Many institutions offer training courses with the hope of finding work abroad later. However, the candidate cannot obtain the qualification at the time of registration, because the certification is not internationally recognized. Therefore, it is essential to seek only training courses facilitated by an organization accredited by the Fiber Optic Association, Inc or FOA.
