In this course, you will learn general strategies for planning, designing, developing, implementing, and maintaining an IoT system through various case studies and by assembling and configuring an IoT device to work in a sensor network. You will create an IoT device based on an ESP8266 microcontroller, implementing various common IoT features, such as analog and digital sensors, a web-based interface, MQTT messaging, and data encryption.
This course is designed for IT professionals with baseline skills in computer hardware, software support, and development who want to learn how to design, develop, implement, operate, and manage Internet of Things devices and related systems. It is for those interested in learning more about embedded systems, microcontroller programming, IoT security, and the development life cycle for IoT projects. While students will gain hands-on experience assembling a prototype IoT device and using software development tools, these activities are closely guided, so previous experience in electronics assembly and programming are not required.
CERTIFIED INTERNET OF THINGS PRACTITIONER IS THE CERTIFICATION FOR VALIDATING A FOUNDATIONAL UNDERSTANDING OF IOT CONCEPTS
What is the Internet of Things? It’s not just about connected consumer devices like wearables and smart thermostats. As IoT evolves into much larger-scale business applications in the world of healthcare, manufacturing, and nearly every other industry imaginable, the need for a general understanding of the technologies, tools, and methods that are part of IoT is greater than ever. Certified Internet of Things Practitioner (CIoTP) is a comprehensive certification designed to validate that individuals in a wide variety of job functions have a foundational knowledge of the important concepts and components that are part of an IoT ecosystem. The CIoTP exam is accredited under the ANSI/ISO/IEC 17024 standard.
In this course, you will learn how to apply Internet of Things technologies to solve real-world problems.
You will:
1 – PLANNING AN IOT IMPLEMENTATION
2 – CONSTRUCTING AND PROGRAMMING AN IOT DEVICE
3 – COMMUNICATING WITH AN IOT DEVICE
4 – PROCESSING IOT DATA
5 – MANAGING RISKS ON IOT PROJECTS
6 – UNDERTAKING AN IOT PROJECT
