WORLDNET LAUNCHES TRAINING INSTITUTE

Guaynabo, PR – WorldNet Telecommunications launched today the WorldNet Institute Education Series for businesses, residents, and students. This education series will offer Puerto Rico periodically the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in telecom and technology, as well as human relations and organizational skills, including how these advancements change and enhance the way businesses do business and people live their lives.

Starting on Tuesday, October 24th, the Polytecnic University engineering and system information students will participate in a “Telecom Summit” that will provide them training program with solid and practical information about opportunities and developments in telecom and technology.

On Wednesday, October 25th, the two-day Telecom Summit will continue, as businesses’ information technology personnel will participate at a WorldNet Institute seminar at Puerto Rico Manufacturers Association facilities. This seminar will provide them with valuable information about broadband and internet protocol solutions and how they can transform the way they do business. Max Kipfer, one of America’s pioneers in the development of fiber based broadband networks, will be an expert guest speaker for this occasion, along with top technical and business professionals from the WorldNet team.

“Training is an essential core component of our company’s commitment to excellence in our performance and education for our customers, and our year-round WorldNet Institute program reflects that commitment. This week’s Telecom Summit idea came from a WN engineer who appreciated the tradition of focused efforts and saw the importance of having a highlighted program in October. The Summit extends to the public and to students, our leaders of the future with state of the art updates in telecom and technology, where developments constantly change the way the technology can be used,” said Lawrence Freedman, WorldNet President and CEO.

“For years, WorldNet has emphasized training of our people in both technical skills and human relations, conflict resolution, and similar skills associated with our vision. As we have grown, and completed our own network infrastructure and moved into the next phase of our company’s evolution, we thought it logical and appropriate to expand and formalize our training program into the WorldNet Institute. We see so much potential for telecom and technology, and our vision of compassion and caring, to transform and advance Puerto Rico business, residents, and young people. And, we think the more information they have, the better they will be able to take advantage of these advancements. We are confident that this will lead to a technology educated workforce and community which will in turn empower Puerto Rico with skills that could help the Island to become a world-class technology and telecom leader”, added Freedman.
