Today, Wednesday 6/11, the Fiber Optics Greece Club was at the Sivitanideio School..
At the invitation of Magas Pantelis and many of the professors of the electrical engineering departments, the students were informed about optical fiber technology and possible future employment, as well as their involvement in projects related to the specific subject. We've also covered everything that professional electricians need to know about the new government guidelines for indoor installations.
Then there was a demonstration of welding optical fibers using a fusion splicer, as well as how to clean the terminals.
We are very optimistic about the future, as several students showed great interest, which was manifested through the many questions that arose.
Our Association promotes the training of new technicians and professionals on optical fiber technology and we hope that with our love and the effort we put in, we will attract the generations that follow, that they in turn will love our profession.
Again we would like to thank Magas Pantelis and we hope that more and more teachers will show the same interest in educating and informing their students about new technologies.

So we thank all the Installers Electricians and not only, for their presence and we hope we answered all their questions.
