The LoRa Alliance®, the global association of companies backing the open LoRaWAN standard for the internet of things (IoT) low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs), introduces the LoRaWAN Accredited Professional program.
The new accreditation supports the growing need for skilled LoRaWAN professionals in the market. The online exam will become available on May 1, 2023 and sign-up is open now, with the first 100 registrants receiving a $100 discount.
“LoRaWAN is a mature technology with massive deployments and the largest IoT ecosystem,” said Donna Moore, CEO and Chairwoman of the LoRa Alliance.
