April and May FCC Webinar Series

The USTTI is proud to bring you a series of webinars sponsored by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

SPECTRUM MANAGEMENT IN THE CIVIL SECTOR (APRIL/MAY 2024)

This course, comprised of approximately sixteen webinars, is the virtual version of the Federal Communications Commission’s bedrock course, “Spectrum Management in the Civil Sector”.

This course will provide information for the national civilian telecommunications spectrum manager that will enable the making of logical spectrum-related decisions that are well-grounded in basic technical procedures. Participants will receive instruction from senior FCC staff in Washington, D.C., and Columbia, Maryland.

Information will be provided on (1) the development of sound civilian telecommunications policy; (2) public sector telecommunications law; (3) national telecommunications rules and regulations; (4) elements and use of radio, television, wireline, or fiber optic carrier, and the satellite carrier licensee databases; (5) criteria for the assignment of frequency authorizations in both national and international communications services; and (6) the general methodology for approval of transmitting and radiating equipment.

NEW – Thursday May 9th, 2024 at 10am EST – USTTI-FCC Spectrum Management in the Civil Sector Webinar Series – Wireless Spectrum: Approaches to Licensing

The webinar will focus on how the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) licenses spectrum for wireless services. Guided by two senior level FCC officials, topics will include the general principles that guide the FCC’s management of spectrum access, the different license models (geographic, site-specific, personal, by rule), and the FCC’s rules on transferring or modifying spectrum licenses in the secondary market. The presenters will evaluate the mechanisms for transitioning spectrum bands from existing licensed uses, along with several case studies. Questions will be encouraged!
