Telecommunications Degree and Programs
A telecommunication technician, also called a home or station installer and repairer, works in private homes or businesses, installing and repairing the wiring and equipment used to communicate. This includes phones, the Internet, and VoIP. Technicians must connect wires to outside service lines, possibly climbing telephone poles, and may even need to install software on the customer's computer. Instead of working at one location all day, a telecommunication technician usually goes out to the installation or repair site.
Telecom Career Training
Many technicians have bachelor's or associate degrees. As technology gets increasingly complex, this kind of formal career training is recommended for anyone who wants to become a telecommunications technician. You need to know about electronics, computers, and communication systems. With on-the-job experience, it's also possible to advance to more complex jobs, such as central office installer. Many employers also look favorably on military experience with communications.
