The Light Brigade, a division of AFL, has signed an agreement with Singapore-based training company, iT Learning Solution (iTLS), to provide training that will “prepare a global workforce for the rapidly growing need of experienced fiber-optic technicians and managers in the fiber-optic industry,” according to the two companies.
The partnership expands iT Learning Solution’s training portfolio to include fiber-optic training provided by The Light Brigade; in turn, it broadens The Light Brigade’s reach into the Asia-Pacific market.
