Carrier Ethernet Services Explained provides an overview of Carrier Ethernet technologies, the relevant MEF CE 2.0 and MEF CE 3.0 specifications for services. It details how these services can be delivered over carrier core, metro and access networks along with other services deployed over a range of core transport and access technologies. It then provides a solid introduction to the principles of network and service design.
We understand it’s not just about passing an exam, but giving our students the opportunity to prove their worth by demonstrating a first-class understanding of the relevant technology. Our blended learning approach allows candidates to benefit from a wider understanding of associated technologies and skills to apply in the workplace, as well as acquiring the relevant skills to pass the MEF-CECP (Blueprint D) exam.
We stay with our customers following the MEF-CECP, providing multi-level, multi-technology training programs at the same high level as our carrier ethernet training. Perpetual Solutions has delivered multi-technology training programs to organisations who have taken our MEF-CECP training, covering topics such as OTN (Optical Transport Networks), LTE, Mobile Backhaul, MPLS and SDN/NFV. With over 2000 courses to choose from, we aim to be your knowledge partner of choice over the long term.

- Access Technologies
Certification & Exam:
Candidates sitting the Carrier Ethernet Services Explained course can sit the MEF-CECP exam on the final day of the course. The exam is a 1 hour 45 minutes online exam consisting of 80 multiple choice questions and is delivered under MEF advised test conditions. When booking the course, we are able to book candidates in for the exam at the same time.
To ensure that as many candidates as possible pass the exam first time, we provide a unique range of prequalification and foundation learning solutions. In addition, we also offer a free place to re-sit the exam should anyone fail to pass the exam first time.
