Association Fiber Optic (The Fiber Optic Association, Inc. [FOA])It was founded in 1995 by a group of educators who taught fiber optic knowledge through teaching. Some came from educational institutions, others were fiber optic manufacturers, installers or users, representing all types of fiber applications. Everyone was concerned that there are no standards for teaching fiber optic technicians or certifications to validate their competence. Since its founding, FOA has focused on education and certification. As our publications went to print, more than 230 training centers delivered CFOT â certification to more than 46,000 students around the world.
The FOA has always tried to offer worldwide sources of impartial and technically correct information about fiber optics, whether by printed or electronic means. The FOA's online reference guide, which can be found on its website (www.thefoa.org), is probably the most widely used and informative Internet reference site in the field of fiber optics. In addition, this guide provides an immediately accessible reference source for FOA certifications for training centers using texts in electronic format.
