The goal of this 5-day course is to provide students with information and practice activities to prepare students to technically plan and conduct a wireless site survey. The student should be able to design the RF network and conduct a post installation assessment to ensure compliancy.

Upon completing this course, the learner should be able to meet these overall objectives:

• Module 1 - Prepare for the Site Survey: Upon completion of this module, the student should be able to describe the requirements necessary for preparing for a site survey.
• Module 2 - Plan for the Site Survey: Upon completion of this module, the student should be able to describe the requirements necessary for planning a site survey.
• Module 3 - Conduct the Site Survey: Upon completion of this module, the student should be able to perform a site survey for data, voice and location applications.
• Module 4 - Design the RF Network: Upon completion of this module, the student should be able to determine the placement of the access points for data, voice and location applications.
• Module 5- Assessing the Deployment: Upon completion of this module, the student should be able to assess the deployment of the WLAN.
