The Qualcomm Wireless Academy (QWA) offers a wide range of courses for engineers and business professionals looking to expand their knowledge of 5G networks and how to work with them. In this article, we discuss the 5G courses in this category available to engineers of all levels, as well as business professionals.
5G Network-Related Foundational Courses for Engineers
If you are an engineer who is new to 5G technology, we recommend starting with our foundational 5G technical course – 5G NR Technical Training – that will give you the baseline level of knowledge you need to dive into more advanced topics related to 5G networks. This course covers an introduction to 5G NR, deployment considerations, network architecture, mmWave, beamforming, massive MIMO, and much more.
5G Network-Related Special Topics & Advanced Workshops for Engineers
If you are an experienced engineer looking to gain in-depth knowledge and skills within specific network-related fields, we recommend looking into one of our “special topic” courses or advanced workshops. These courses are geared toward wireless engineers with at least a few years of experience and who are familiar with the content in the foundational course discussed above. Our “special topic” courses and advanced workshops related to 5G networks are as follows:
- 5G Core Network Training
- 5G Network Planning
- 5G NR Capacity Planning
- Virtualized RAN (vRAN) Technical Training
- 5G Small Cells Training
- 5G Transport and Dimensioning Training
5G Network-Related Training for Business Professionals
5G training is not only for engineers. In fact, professionals responsible for making business decisions related to wireless technology may benefit from understanding how 5G networks work from a non-technical standpoint.
If you are a business professional looking for high-level training on the subject, we recommend our 5G Primer course. This 2.5-hour course covers the basics of wireless and cellular communication, the evolution of 5G, key networking features of 5G, use cases, and more. There are no prerequisites for this course and you do not need an engineering background to understand the course’s content.
