FiberU (<a href="https://fiberu.org" class="">https://fiberu.org</a>) has a lot of decent free training materials. Their emphasis is on physical installation, but they do cover DWDM, Bi-Di, and related physics in some of their videos. If you’re looking for
DWDM design and provisioning, you’ll probably have to pay for vendor-specific courses.

<div class="">Here’s the FiberU syllabus that covers optical fiber testing along with DWDM and OTDR. </div>

<div class="">Hi All,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Hopefully this is the right place to post this question. I'm a routing guy mainly working with ISIS/BGP for my company in our core space. I have an opportunity to get involve with our L2 DWDM network. We are a Cisco shop using NCS2K as DWDM
nodes. But before jump into learning the NCS specific stuff, I would like to take a vendor neutral training course in Optical fiber testing with OSA/OTDR, OTN, DWDM signaling, OSNR/dispersion....etc. I think this will help me understand how to build out
a DWDM network from ground up. I'm hoping someone I could get into designing network for my company.</div>
