“CCTV security system installation training is an excellent skill to acquire, whether for personal use or as a professional career path. Here’s a breakdown of what you might cover in a skills training program for CCTV installation:

Introduction to CCTV Systems

Overview of CCTV Technology: Types of cameras, DVRs/NVRs, and their purposes.

Types of CCTV Systems: Analog, IP-based systems, and hybrid systems.

Applications: Residential, commercial, and industrial uses.

Basic Electrical and Networking Knowledge

Electrical Basics: Voltage, current, and resistance; safe handling of electrical components.

Networking Basics: IP addressing, subnetting, and setting up local area networks (LAN) and Wi-Fi connections.

Cable Management: Coaxial cables, Ethernet cables (Cat5/Cat6), and fiber optics; crimping and cable termination.

Components of CCTV Systems

Cameras: Dome, bullet, PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom), and thermal cameras; differences in resolution, night vision, and weatherproofing.

Recording Devices: Digital Video Recorders (DVR) vs. Network Video Recorders (NVR); storage capacity and data compression formats.

Power Supply: Power over Ethernet (PoE) vs. separate power sources.

Accessories: Connectors, mounts, and housings.”

CCTV Architecture, Design, Installation & Management Skills

One of the mosr critical skills in CCTV skills is the design stage. This is so, especially when carrying out large installation projects

During the design of CCTV systems much time is spent on estimating lens focal length and the right location of video cameras to get the necessary image on the screen.
Estimating person identification areas and license plate reading areas causes additional difficulties for a designer. The task becomes more complicated when it is necessary to choose optimal relative positions of several cameras or when it is necessary to make one camera solve several tasks (for example identification of entering people and surveillance over the perimeter). You can also add the necessity to calculate how this or that object will be displayed, where the motion detector will detect a person for an instance with enough light and contrast ratio, and where it will not, etc.

Basic Electricity for the Non-Electrician Skills Training – Feb 2025

People use electricity for lighting, heating, cooling, and refrigeration and for operating appliances, computers, electronics, machinery, and public transportation systems. The implication is that understanding of the working of electricity is critical to those handling devices that need and use electricity.
