Overview
This course is specifically designed for Ohio-licensed engineers to qualify as a "timed and monitored" online course. The course contains an automatic timer that prevents the user from accessing the quiz and earning a certificate of completion until the minimum amount of study time has been met. This achieves the Ohio Board's intent that an online course should be "paced" by the provider. For more information, please see the Ohio state requirements. This course may also be accepted in other states (see the "Board Acceptance" tab above). However, if you are not licensed in Ohio, it is suggested that you purchase the self-paced version of the course.

In What is 5G and How Did We Get Here?, you'll learn ...

  • The evolution of the digital computer
  • The progression of communication technology, stretching from Morse code to modern 5G
  • Moore’s Law and the future advancement of technology

This is a course on the evolution of the digital computer and how the telecommunication industry evolved along with the digital computer, culminating in modern communication technology. A brief history of digital computers is given, along with some important milestones that happened along the way. This will stretch from “0G” to what we see advertised as “5G.”

This radical progression of the communication industry took root much earlier than the advent of the personal computer or cell phone. This is a technological journey that humankind has been taking for almost 200 years. The fruits of convenient communication that we enjoy today were planted by the ingenuity of engineers and scientists born long before us, and this course will benefit any who are curious to know more about the development of this technology.
