Orchestration, Automation and Virtualisation (OAV) are broad topics with many tools, platforms, programming languages and concepts involved, and it is easy to get lost.

The interactive metro map is a visual way to help you follow your self-paced training, depending on your interests. These are some tips to follow the map:

  • A circle in a station means this is a Moodle course in the eAcademy.
  • A square means this is a document or an external website where you can get more information on a topic.
  • A station with the font highlighted is available.
  • A station with the font grayed out means it’s not published yet.
  • Some stations can belong to more than one line.
  • When you arrive to a big station after completing a line, you have gained the knowledge about the topic and mastered the area.
  • The green line gives a basic overview of OAV topics and the functional blocks in the TM Forum Open Digital Architecture (ODA) in short learning units (between 5 minutes and 1 hour).
  • We recommend that you take at least the first three introductory courses before jumping to another line.
  • You can change the line and follow a technical line, or a more theoretical line, or search for use cases.

Follow the training charts

(pick training packages to follow)
