Kickstart Your Fiber Career & Connect Your Community

Clearfield’s training for Tribal communities leads to meaningful jobs as a fiber technician

Clearfield launched the Tribal Broadband Training Initiative to provide industry-standard training to Native American communities. Using our proven Certified Fiber Optic Technician (CFOT®) course, the no-cost program aims to:

Create pathways for local residents to gain certification
Open up living-wage career opportunities
Connect Tribal lands with high-speed fiber broadband

The CFOT certification is an industry-standard designation recognized (and required) by some of the biggest companies in the fiber broadband market. It’s also a prerequisite to more specialized certifications and trainings in fiber splicing, outside plant technology, and more.

The Tribal Broadband Training Initiative is open to individuals with no experience or those working in the industry who are ready to advance. You need to be 18 of age, an enrolled member of a federally recognized Tribe, and interested in a rewarding career in fiber optics.
