Training and certification as a Mission Control Engineer

 

In order to empower new employees at Open Systems to implement their knowledge in practice quickly and take on responsibility, everyone at Open Systems undergoes training for certification as a Mission Control Engineer.
 
The modular training course takes between three and six months, depending on the person's previous vocational qualifications, professional experience and current level of knowledge. 50 percent of the employee's time is invested in this training course, with the remaining 50 percent spent working in his or her team. The course ends with an in-house exam, for which a certificate is awarded.

 

 

The training is divided into four modules:

 

Phase 1: Self-study

Refreshing/acquiring technical know-how needed for practical training

 

Phase 2: Practical training courses with interim tests

Training in the services and processes by in-house specialists

 

Phase 3: Accompanied deployments in the Mission Control Operation Centre

Dealing with and resolving genuine Mission Control situations with the support of an experienced Security Engineer

 

Phase 4: Examination and certification

Half-day final exam, for which a pass is rewarded with a certificate

 

 

The training and certification as a Mission Control Security Engineer brings the following personal benefits:

  • Professional consolidation in the specialist area of network security
  • Unique opportunity to translate theoretical knowledge into practice quickly
  • On-the-job training with Mission Control Security Services and their operation
  • Very broad and efficient training by in-house specialists
  • Reinforce confidence in one's own skills by working on productive computers
  • Gain insight into the work of the various teams
  • Balance between theoretical training and practical work in the team
  • An opportunity to personally get to know and work with the in-house specialists

 

 

And that's what team members think about the traning:

 

Manuel Schwarz, Security Engineer, Labs: «During the training as a Mission Control Engineer, I gained valuable technical know-how firsthand.»

 

Mathias Fischer, Security Engineer, Labs: «Right from the start the training put me in direct contact with the people in charge of individual services, which is of course an incredibly valuable and efficient form of hands-on training.»

 

Stefan Rothenhofer, Security Engineer, Professional Services: «The Security Engineer training was exciting, but it was also a challenge until you know all the details of the different services.»
