Motorola India Private Limited, in alliance with Edutech India Private Limited and CMC Limited, a subsidiary of Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS), launched a few days ago the Motorola Certified Network Engineer program (MCNE) for ambitious engineers who want a career in India's Telecoms industry. The program is unique for India, and it was launched after it was successfully introduced in China. MCNE's purpose is to share organized and technically abundant training to engineers in different areas of mobile communication technologies from now and from the future. This way, the telecom operators and the global industry can continue to offer optimized services for the market's high demands.

MCNE is able to offer different tracks of telecommunications standards used in Core network, Wireline/Wireless access, Application domains and Services of the industry. Wireless Access Technologies are included, like GSM, CDMA, UMTS and GPRS. The MCNE portfolio of Certifications will be introduced, after it was designed and developed with industry experts' support. The completion of the certification phases will lead to the Motorola Certified Network Engineer status.

Motorola India's chairman, Firdose Vandrevala, who is also corporate vice president at Motorola Inc., declared: "The MCNE portfolio of certifications offers a comprehensive technology curriculum providing the mobile communications industry with a large pool of well trained and technologically capable workers by bridging the skill gap in this knowledge-intensive industry. Additionally, partnering with CMC and Edutech will ensure that optimum quality standards are maintained."

Motorola's learning from world-wide markets, together with the experience gained in years of designing and deploying important wireless networks, are incorporated in the MCNE certification program. What Motorola and the other two companies involved aim at is to help improve the work efficiency, lower the costs of selecting and keeping good employees and fasten the implementation of engineering projects and related operations.

Being Motorola's partner, CMC Limited has recruited for the MCNE program special telecom trainers, initially prepared by Motorola's technical staff. CMC Limited has 200 franchisee centers across India and collaborative training centers with distinguished institutes and universities.
