What is RCDD?
The Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD)* certification is globally recognized within the telecommunications industry, as a designation of the exceptional qualifications and expertise of the individual, in the design, integration and implementation of telecommunications systems and their related infrastructure components. The RCDD designation is becoming ever more recognized...and required...by many private and governmental organizations.
Thinking about becoming an RCDD?
There are BICSI prerequisites to apply to test.
The RCDD certification is for those individuals who have a minimum of 5-years of design experience, who are actively involved in network infrastructure design, or working directly with architects, engineers, network managers, or other professionals in the design, implementation or integration of network infrastructures, alarm systems or security systems. Please refer to BICSI RCDD Certification Handbook as requirements and pre-requisites may change.
Why Should I become an RCDD?
As the telecommunications industry expands, the RCDD designation will become ever more requested and required to submit bids for private, state, school or government contracts. You will acquire a wealth of knowledge from our interactive classroom structure, as we cover all chapters of the current edition TDM manuals, including Codes, Standards and Regulations, Horizontal and Backbone distribution, TRs, ERs, through Administration and Special Design Considerations. Not to mention that the RCDD certification will give you the competitive edge and the RCDD designation can aid in your career development (...and increased salary potential), enhance your professional status and expand your opportunities!
