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 Student Course Surveys Help Confirm Early Skills Acquisition and Value

Ad campaign emphasizes rapid skills acquisition for adult learners and the University's commitment to workforce-aligned education

University of Phoenix has launched a national ad campaign spotlighting its innovative, skills-mapped curriculum designed to equip adult learners with career-relevant skills in a matter of weeks—not years. Employers have increasingly been prioritizing skills to improve job performance and drive talent development.

Reinforcing the commitment to supporting career-focused adult learners, the University includes a key item in its Student End-of-Course Survey to better understand how quickly students are able to apply what they learn. The prompt, “I earned skills in my course that I can put to use right away,” has received more than 92,000 responses, with an average rating of 9.2 (out of 10) by respondents.

“The goal in capturing these data is to better understand students’ perception of the immediate value of their coursework,” shares Nick Williams, Ed.D., director, Assessment Systems and Technology.

Eve Krahe Billings, Ph.D., dean of Academic Innovation & Evaluation, considers how the positive responses fit into other metrics across the University’s career-focused ecosystem, including Career Navigator use. “These results align with other high-performing, career centered indicators across the institution, further supporting the University’s dynamic connection between academic excellence and real-world application. University of Phoenix adult learners are empowered to identify, demonstrate and plan around the skills they are acquiring in their coursework.”

Central to the ad campaign is a video titled “Tortoise and Hare,” which illustrates how students can acquire and leverage career-relevant skills quickly throughout their academic journey. The video reinforces the University’s position that education should deliver value early and often—not just at the point of graduation.

To ensure its programs remain aligned with workforce needs, University of Phoenix works with labor market researchers including Lightcast, formerly Emsi Burning Glass, programmatic accreditor standards and guidelines, industry advisory council insights, and faculty expertise from those who work in the fields they teach. Students’ progress in demonstrating skills is made visible through their individual Skills Profile located within the Career Navigator.
