Senet Training Course Offerings
Comprehensive LoRaWAN Training Courses for Participants Across the IoT Ecosystem
LoRaWAN Training Course
Senet offers a variety of training courses delivered as web-based training or on-site training at Senet’s headquarters. Training on customer sites may be arranged at additional cost. Price varies depending on duration and location. Please contact Senet for quotation.
Introduction to LoRaWAN
Presentation of the LoRaWAN technical architecture and key concepts followed by a half-day, hands-on lab session. Day 2 (optional) typically includes another hands-on lab exercise to expand the use of the available sensors in the development kit and/or the more advanced features in the IoT platform.
Application Provider Training – Introduction
Demonstration and training of common workflows for the Application Provider, including detailed instruction on the device onboarding process, day-to-day tasks of managing an application, and troubleshooting commonly encountered problems.
RAN Provider Training Module for Application Providers (Add-on Option)
If you are an Application Provider who also plans to provide your own gateways, this add-on course is for you. Important workflows for gateway provisioning, monitoring, management, and troubleshooting will be covered in some detail.
Application Provider Training – Advanced
The contents of this course can be tailored to the customer’s specific needs and interests. Since this will be a custom course, pricing and duration will vary.
RAN Provider Training – Introduction
Provides demonstration and training of common workflows for the RAN Provider, including network design and the use of various planning map features, instruction on how to use test points to validate expected network coverage and workflows for base station provisioning, monitoring, management, and troubleshooting.
RAN Provider Training – Advanced
The contents of this course can be tailored to the customer’s specific needs and interests. Since this will be a custom course, pricing and duration will vary.
Operator Training – Introduction
Provides demonstration and training of common workflows for the LoRaWAN Operator. The course is intended to follow a typical life cycle to include planning and deploying additional network coverage, onboarding new customers and applications, and monitoring and troubleshooting base stations and end devices.

Accelerate the Commercialization of LoRaWAN Applications
With a diverse set of IoT applications characterized by different demands, there is no “one technology fits all” approach to delivering connectivity for all IoT applications. The emergence of Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs), however, is fundamentally changing the IoT landscape. The cost and functionality gap between cellular and local-area networks has created an opportunity for LPWAN technologies, which excel at enabling low power, long range sensor applications where only small amounts of data are required.
The LoRaWAN® open specification is a low power, wide area networking (LPWAN) protocol based on LoRa Technology. Designed to wirelessly connect battery operated things to the Internet in regional, national or global networks, the LoRaWAN protocol leverages the unlicensed radio spectrum in the Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band. The specification defines the device-to-infrastructure of LoRa physical layer parameters and the LoRaWAN protocol, and provides seamless interoperability between devices.
Of the billions of IoT sensor-enabled devices expected to be connected over the next few years, more than half are estimated to operate using Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs). Designed for sensors and applications that need to send and receive small amounts of data just a few times per hour or maybe only once a day, LPWANs are transforming the way things are monitored and measured and are contributing to a new wave of IoT innovation resulting in solutions and business models that otherwise would not be possible.
IoT is driving advancements across enterprise and industrial markets, and in vertical industries such as water, gas and electric utilities, agriculture, healthcare and municipal services where it has the potential to streamline operations, deliver time and cost savings and create new services. It is also driving global economic and environmental change with new opportunities for innovation enabling businesses and citizens to make the world a better place.
The Senet LVN provides rapidly expanding Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) coverage by connecting Network Operator, Application Provider and Radio Access Network (RAN) Provider networks under a cooperative model. LVN participants partner with Senet to deploy LoRaWAN gateways in support of network expansion strategies and IoT application requirements. This investment in the network infrastructure allows participants to share in the revenue generated by all end devices connecting to the Radio Access Network they’ve deployed.
Operators and RAN Providers participating in the LVN benefit from immediate expansion in coverage area while IoT Application Providers can contribute to the network buildout and provide connectivity services to support the unique geographic and business needs of their customers.
Further streamlining connectivity delivery and management, the Senet LVN supports standardized global device activation and deployment processes, single billing for global device connectivity and cost and connectivity benefits over traditional roaming. In addition, the Senet LVN manages and rates the quality of service delivery for each participant, ensuring a carrier-grade experience.
The success of the Internet of Things depends on reliable data, making sensors and end devices a critical part of any IoT solution. High performance sensing ensures the highest level of integrity from the start.
