About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

University of Phoenix updates University Learning Goals designed to enrich the academic journey and graduates’ career preparedness

By: via Business Wire

Learning goals of Cultural Competence & Ethics and Digital Fluency further enhance readiness for careers in the diverse and digital workplace

University of Phoenix has established two new University Learning Goals for its students: Cultural Competence & Ethics, and Digital Fluency. These two new learning goals support the University’s focus on academic rigor, strengthening learners’ career readiness, and supporting graduates’ contribution to their communities.

The University Learning Goals reflect the learned skills or abilities expected of all students in undergraduate and graduate programs who complete their university education. They are:

  • Cultural Competence & Ethics
  • Critical Thinking & Problem Solving
  • Communication
  • Digital Fluency; and
  • Collaboration.

The University continuously works to ensure that the University Learning Goals focus on the skills graduates need to be successful in their careers. The two new learning goals were designed in response to continued calls in higher education, industry, and communities to foster students’ ability to appreciate, function, and interact in diverse environments and to access, ethically use, and create new information in a digital environment.

“Our University Learning Goals provide a strong foundation for our approach to curriculum development and program design,” states John Woods, Ph.D., provost and chief academic officer of University of Phoenix. “As part of our mission to provide career-relevant education to working adults, we saw an important opportunity to update our goals and ensure alignment with the skills and competencies required for the diverse and digital 21st century workplace.”

The University Learning Goals were first established in 2002 and further defined in 2014. In keeping with the University’s drive to instill in-demand skillsets in its students, the goals were again reviewed in 2020.

The University Learning Goal enhancement was the outcome of a collaborative effort led by the University’s Assessment and Institutional Research team who brought together a diverse group of faculty, subject matter experts, and College administrators.

University graduates demonstrating Cultural Competence & Ethics “will demonstrate the essential practices of cultural competence through proactively seeking to understand the differences in others, examining favored beliefs about [themselves] and others and taking advantage of opportunities to grow and change when necessary. [They] will learn how to engage in overt and deliberate planning, practices, strategies, policies, ethical actions and collaborations that support diversity and foster inclusion and belonging.”

University graduates demonstrating Digital Fluency “will be able to access and ethically use information and data from a variety of sources. [They] will research and analyze the plausibility and accuracy of the information. [They] will learn to utilize digital tools to create new information or knowledge and responsibly disseminate it in a digital environment.”

The University Learning Goals are published on the University website and are included in accreditation documentation provided to the University’s Accreditor, the Higher Learning Commission as well as to programmatic accreditors such as those that accredit the select University’s programs in Business, Education, Nursing, Health Administration, and Counseling.

The University’s Learning Goals for Undergraduate and Graduate students support the University’s mission to change the lives of working adults and their families through higher education and the University’s focus on responding to industry and community needs to ensure students’ career readiness.
