RFID Training

* Prepare for CompTIA RFID+ Certification at a fraction of the cost of other training programs!

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is quickly becoming a necessity for business efficiency and visibility improvements. RFID systems are being incorporated primarily in supply chain applications and used to enhance asset tracking. The Department of Defense, Wal-Mart and Target are just some of the organizations currently requiring their vendors to ship products with RFID tags. With the progression
of RFID requirements, vendors and industry professionals must become educated on this growing technology.

This comprehensive, two-day course is designed to prepare attendees for the industry standard CompTIA RFID+ examination. Attendees will gain an in-depth understanding of RFID technology, hardware and software capabilities, RFID system implementation, and system maintenance. The program will combine classroom instruction with real-life applications and hands-on exercises.
Attendees will gain the ability to install and maintain their own RFID systems upon completion of the
RFID training course.

Supply chain and operations professionals, company executives, IT managers and developers, IT solution providers and consultants can all benefit from course participation.

"...a well designed course with plenty of informative user interaction and an excellent prep for the
CompTIA RFID+ certification."
