CWIP Prerequisites and Course Overview

Prerequisites

Required skills and background knowledge for training and certification:

  1. You must be able to communicate in English (verbally and written)
    The classes are taught in English exclusively. If you have a difficult time understanding English you will find the classes almost impossible to navigate.

  2. Systems and Network Administration
    The individual should have a good understanding of networks, including CDN setup and maintenance, setup and maintenance of web servers, video content flow to the Internet, firewalls, routing, subnets, TCP and UDP communications.

  3. Experience with OS (Redhat Linux)
    Our only supported OS is Redhat, therefore, all students are expected to have an intermediate knowledge of Redhat commands to complete the lab.

  4. Experience with Video encoding and Video Encoding Standards (Understand GOP, iframe, H.264, MP2TS, etc…)
    Video encoding is one of the most time consuming and complicated portions of an integration and CWIP students should have a very good understanding of video encoding standards, such as IDR frame structure, encoding profiles like baseline, main, high, and which platforms support which profile, video muxing, HLS, etc.

  5. Scripting (XML)
    Our installation manual contains a sample start script, plus we have students edit CGI files, we also field scripting related questions.

  6. Programming (C, Java)
    Our code is C and C++ and web UI is Java, therefore it is recommended that students understand these.

  7. Experience with VOD and VOD administration

  8. Experience with streaming video over the web

    9. Prerequisites for IPTV Closed Network courses (WVEDU 901/902/903/904)


  9. Experience with VOD and VOD administration in an IPTV Closed Network environment
    The student must have a good understanding of the parts of Video on Demand delivery from management of the Source/Catcher through delivery from the Streaming Server.

  10. Experience with streaming video in an IPTV Closed Network environment
    The student must have a basic understanding of broadcast stream encoding, how to verify quality of clear content and how broadcast streams are delivered from source through encoder to STB.
