Twenty (20) Military personnel of the First Signal Regiment of the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) have ended a four-month secondment to Vodafone Ghana during which they underwent hands-on training in commercial communication systems and safety.They undertook an intensive training in such areas as Operations and Maintenance (O&M) of Data and Broadband Network, Fixed Switches, Base Station Systems (BSS) and Transmission Systems, Fixed Access Network and Implementation and Maintenance of Fibre Network and NOC Operations.The Soldiers were taken through almost every aspect of technology as pertains in the telecommunications industry with educational visits to the SAT-3 undersea cable and the Satellite Earth Station at Kuntunse.Addressing the Soldiers at the end of the programme in Accra, David Christopher Gaul, Head of Operations of Vodafone Ghana, said apart from its academic benefits, the exercise was also meant to be a cross training of Military processes into Vodafone Ghana.He said it was a means of building relationships around co-locations and potential resource sharing between the Ghana Armed Forces and Vodafone Ghana, adding that the training of the Officers demonstrates Vodafone’s commitment to supporting the Government of Ghana in issues of capacity building.Speaking on behalf of his colleagues, Staff Sergeant George Idam, thanked Vodafone for the training, emphasizing that the knowledge inculcated in them would be brought to bear in their daily operations within the Ghana Armed Forces.He however lamented that the duration of the course was too short for them to grasp everything they were thought, a concern that was shared by the others.Source: Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
