NBFAA

Because of certification classes offered by the NBFAA to industry professionals from the comfort of their own home or office, these technicians can receive additional training from the NBFAA's National Training School (NTS). Graduates of the Certified Alarm Technician (Level I) course can now seek their Advanced Burglar Alarm Technician (ABAT) training online.

Participants will learn how to properly wire and troubleshoot speakers and siren drivers, determine the minimum size power supply needed for a system to operate for a specified number of hours without primary power, choose the number, location and type of detection devices to meet customer's needs, and list the completion tests that must be performed to ensure proper system operation.

In addition, they will learn how to identify the factors that must be considered before selecting a panel, troubleshoot a system that has failed to communicate and describe the purpose and operation of each programmable option in the Security Industry Association (SIA) Control Panel Standard.
