CenturyLink Local Network/National Network Services Engineering & Construction Sub-Contractor Competency Certification Introduction:

CenturyLink is committed to ensuring the integrity and viability of its Local and National Network Services facilities. The CenturyLink Local Network/National Network Services Engineering & Construction Sub-Contractor Competency Certification contains the requisite core skill sets that anyone working for CenturyLink in the capacity of a Central Office Equipment Installation Technician or National Network Services Installation Technician must adhere to. This Competency Certification is designed to reinforce to both CenturyLink employees and sub-contracted Service Suppliers, the correct and proper application of these concepts. Periodically, CenturyLink requires both employees and sub-contracted Service Suppliers to acknowledge that these concepts are received, reviewed, understood and properly applied in accordance with CenturyLink Technical Publications TP 77350, TP 77351, TP 77353, and CenturyLink Planning & Engineering Guidelines (PEG) requirements.

During the course of this Competency Certification process, the incumbent will be provided with various scenarios depicting equipment-based concepts that currently reside within the CenturyLink Technical Publication hierarchy of standards. The incumbent is permitted access to these publications to ensure a successful completion. In each Module, the incumbent will select the "best" response from the offered choices and will be provided with immediate feedback regarding the accuracy of his/her response. At the conclusion of each Module, the incumbent will be informed of their "completion status" for that particular segment. The incumbent will either pass the module (based on a 90% correct response rate for the Local Network and 100% for National Network Services) or be redirected back into the current module for a re-take. Because of the nature of this process as a Competency Certification, the incumbent is not provided with a definitive "score" at the end of each module; only a "Pass/Fail" response.

If, at any time during these examinations, should the incumbent need to exit the examination process, (just click "LOGOUT"), and the system will store and retain the incumbent's position within that current module and will resume the examination at that point upon their return.
