Details:
Collaboration
- IEEE C-DOT Certified Telecom Expert Program (ICCTEP) was collaborated by IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) and C-DOT (Centre for Development of Telematics).
ICCTEP Platform
- This platform will offer a specially-tailored certification program that aims at providing quality learning in diverse areas of telecom.
- The key focus is on building skills that would accelerate the participation of students, academia, technologists, industry, start-ups, and other relevant stakeholders in developing globally-competitive Telecom technologies and solutions. The first program launched on the platform is on 5G and beyond.
Objectives
- To bring learning in the areas of Telecom including 5G, Cyber Security, and Quantum Communication to bridge the skill gap.
- To jointly create telecommunication courses, promote and train students and professionals, create jobs opportunities, and bridge the digital divide.
- IEEE Blended Learning Program (BLP) aims to upskill young professionals in Wireless, Optical, Broadcasting, Telecom Validation & Security.
[Note: The BLP certification program is developed in conjunction with industry leaders and vetted by experts to ensure their effectiveness in content and learning experience. It is backed by micro-learning modules, application modules, and data analytics, ultimately leading to a joint certificate, which aims at bridging the skills gap.]
Significance:
- ICCTEP is a concrete step in the furtherance of wide-ranging collaboration between C-DOT and IEEE.

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is a professional association for electronic engineering and electrical engineering (and associated disciplines) with its corporate office in New York City. The mission of the IEEE is advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. The IEEE was formed from the amalgamation of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Institute of Radio Engineers in 1963. IEEE and its members inspire a global community through its highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and professional & educational activities. C-DOT Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) is the premier R&D centre of the Department of Telecommunications, Ministry of Communications, Government of India. It was established in 1984 as an autonomous body with the initial mandate of designing and developing digital exchanges. Its goal was to develop telecommunication technology to meet the needs of the Indian telecommunication network. C-DOT has expanded to develop intelligent computer software applications. Sam Pitroda started the C-DOT as an autonomous telecom R&D organisation. C-DOT has indigenously designed various cutting-edge Telecom technologies including 4G/5G, Disaster Management, Cyber Security and Quantum Communications.
