WHY DOES CERTIFICATION IN WIRELESS MATTER FOR PROFESSIONALS WORLDWIDE?

With IEEE WCET® certification, professionals will be able to clearly demonstrate their knowledge of wireless communication technologies to employers or change engineering fields as new opportunities arise in the wireless industry.
Vendor-neutral and trans-national in scope, the IEEE WCET® certification program's focus is explicitly on the knowledge and on-the-job experience that a practicing wireless communications professional needs to possess in order to pass the WCET exam. Nothing testifies more to the international nature of the program than the breadth of industry participation at all stages of the development process.

In support of the wireless industry which is essential to commerce, business and personal communications, and public safety / first responders, the IEEE WCET® certification program:

  • Provides a globally recognized credential defining what is expected from an IEEE Certified Wireless Professional
  • Fosters the learning and build-up of knowledge across the breadth of wireless communications
  • Helps business leaders master all aspects in wireless engineering technology for today's ever growing vertical and horizontal integrations
  • Prepares industry, military and government entities for tomorrow's successes, and contributes towards your sustained success


From a global perspective, WCET is a wireless certification recognized around the world. The program is based on technology and applications and not a specific company's approach. Certified engineers have demonstrated a thorough understanding of different key technologies in the wireless arena, new technology / standards development, and local market implications of wireless communications.

APPRECIATING THE VALUE OF IEEE WCET® CERTIFICATION

The IEEE WCET® credential is recognized around the world. Certified professionals have demonstrated a thorough understanding of:

  • Different key technologies in the wireless area
  • Local market implications of wireless communications
  • New technology / standards developments
The program is based on technology and applications and not a specific company's approach. Several major corporations have partnered with the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) to make IEEE WCET® certification a requirement or goal for their employees - further supporting their continuing professional development. IEEE ComSoc has also partnered with the Mobile Computing Promotion Consortium (MCPC) of Japan. As the wireless industry continues to grow due to fast networks, powerful smartphones, innovative applications, and increasing customer penetration, both organizations are working together to certify professionals in mobile and wireless technology to help supply the mobile broadband industry the necessary expertise.
