The SIP School Announces Collaboration with DIDX

Pensacola, FL, October 15, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The SIP School and DIDX announced their collaboration in empowering IP communications entrepreneurs, wired and wireless carriers, and developer students with SIP education. SIP, DID, and open source telephony in general are hugely responsible for millions of SMB startups and jobs.

Wikipedia's current entry on SIP defines session initiation protocol. "The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocol, widely used for controlling multimedia communication sessions such as voice and video calls over Internet Protocol (IP). Other feasible application examples include video conferencing, streaming multimedia distribution, instant messaging, presence information and online games. The protocol can be used for creating, modifying and terminating two-party (unicast) or multiparty (multicast) sessions consisting of one or several media streams. The modification can involve changing addresses or ports, inviting more participants, adding or deleting media streams, etc."

The SIP School's SSCATM certification is endorsed by Mitel, Panasonic, Ingate, AudioCodes, Brekeke, DIDX, TIA, Bicsi, Digium, Telematrix and others.

“A new DIDX member pointed us to The SIP School and how beneficial it was for her own technical support team. Students study the SIP coursework and get certified. Even better, is the opportunity to stay updated on new SIP topics,” stated Muneeb Iqbal, a DIDX director. “We immediately visited the school online and found in-depth information on SIP messaging, SIP servers, security, firewalls, NAT, troubleshooting, trunking, ENUM, unified communications, and more.”

The SIP School training system is flash-based with animation and includes learning games, labs, and quizzes. The content evolves with the development of SIP. In fact, students registered for the most popular program now, will in Q1 2010 see new modules of SIP in IMS and SIP with Mobility at no extra charge.

“I immediately requested via Twitter to MrSIP for a podcast interview and was able to add the valuable audio content on the DIDX channel. After the glowing reviews from DIDX members of the quality of the instruction,” added Suzanne Bowen, vice president of Super Technologies, Inc. and DIDX. “I wanted to share as quickly as possible the news. We will even be able to offer a small discount to active DIDX members.”

Graham Francis aka MrSIP and CEO of The SIP School said: “DIDX are such a dynamic and active member of the Telecoms community that we just had to get connected with them. And now we delighted that they are promoting our SIP training and certification service to all of their members. These are tough economic times, so we see the demand for e-learning rocketing over the next few years as companies look to slash travel and subsistence costs. Our training program is in the perfect position to help these companies learn all about the most important protocol to hit telecoms for years and get qualified to prove to everyone that they know their SIP.”
