Big Sandy Community and Technical College will hold a fiber optics training course on December 5 through 11 on its Pikeville Campus. The seven—day course will include fiber optics certifications for technicians, specialists in testing and maintenance and specialist in outside plant cabling. BSCTC President Dr. Devin Stephenson called it “fast-track training for high-speed jobs” and said “jobs in fiber optics will not only make our graduates competitive locally, but nationally and internationally.” For more information or to register for the class, contact Sally Porter at 606-218-1276 or email sporter0044@kctcs.edu.
