Hey everyone, I just graduated from the AWA fiber technician training program, which places people into data center fiber jobs. There's not much about it online, so I figured I'd answer questions for anyone considering it. Happy to cover how you get in, what the weeks of training actually look like (housing, food, the hands-on material), how the placement and job offer process works, and whether I'd recommend it. I'm just a graduate, not an official rep, so this is my own experience. Ask away.

[comment u/1mma_Pr0bl3m] So I applied on the CBRE site about a week ago maybe and immediately got sent the assessment within an hour. This was Oct 21st. Today, Oct 28th I had my interview.
[comment u/1mma_Pr0bl3m] What she keep asking is if I was ok moving to Richmond, VA.
