Certified Internet of Things (IoT) Practitioner (Virtual)

Overview

Overview

In this three-day course, students will learn general strategies for planning, designing, developing, implementing, and maintaining an IoT system through various case studies and by assembling and configuring an IoT device to work in a sensor network. Students will create an IoT device based on an ESP8266 microcontroller, implementing various common IoT features, such as analog and digital sensors, a web-based interface, MQTT messaging, and data encryption. This course prepares students for taking the CertNexus Certified Internet of Things (IoT) Practitioner (Exam ITP-110). This course includes a FREE exam voucher for ITP-110.

Why Certified Internet of Things (IoT) Practitioner training?

This course is designed for IT professionals with baseline skills in computer hardware, software support, and development who want to learn how to design, develop, implement, operate, and manage IoT devices and related systems. It is for those interested in learning more about embedded systems, microcontroller programming, IoT security, and the development life cycle for IoT projects. While students will gain hands-on experience assembling a prototype IoT device and using software development tools, these activities are closely guided, so previous experience in electronics assembly and programming are not required.

Who should attend?

IT professionals or stakeholders that are involved with the organization’s Internet of Things (IoT) system, students looking to be certified in CertNexus Certified of Things (IofT) ITP-110.

COVID-19 Policy

DVIRC recommends all guests be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Unvaccinated visitors must take a rapid test (which may be supplied by DVIRC) and receive a negative response. Considering the test will take about 15 minutes to process, all unvaccinated guests should arrive 15 minutes early to ensure they can take the rapid test and receive negative results before they proceed to the training room or to their scheduled meeting within the building.
