5G Certification Training with Koenig Solutions

Course Overview

What is 5G?

5G is the fifth-generation mobile network standard developed by 3GPP to deliver high-speed, low-latency, and scalable wireless connectivity for diverse applications including enhanced mobile broadband, massive IoT, and mission-critical communications. It forms the foundation of modern telecommunications infrastructure, enabling advanced digital services across industries. The 5G system comprises several key components: the User Equipment (UE), the Next-Generation Radio Access Network (NG-RAN) with gNB base stations, and the 5G Core (5GC). The 5GC includes essential Network Functions such as the Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF), Session Management Function (SMF), User Plane Function (UPF), Unified Data Management (UDM), Policy Control Function (PCF), and Network Slice Selection Function (NSSF), all operating within a service-based architecture to support network slicing, edge computing, and dynamic service provisioning. 5G is designed for network engineers, telecommunications architects, and IT professionals responsible for designing, deploying, and managing next-generation networks, enabling them to support ultra-reliable low-latency communications, massive device connectivity, and customized network slices for industrial automation, smart cities, and enterprise digital transformation.

The building blocks every 5G solution is made of

01
5G Core Network
The 5G Core (5GC) is the central control and connectivity framework for 5G systems. Practitioners build secure, scalable network slices and manage user sessions across diverse services.
02
NG-RAN
The Next-Generation Radio Access Network (NG-RAN) connects user devices to the 5G core. Practitioners build high-capacity wireless access networks using gNBs and advanced radio protocols.
03
gNB
The gNodeB (gNB) is the base station in 5G NR networks. Practitioners build distributed radio units and centralized processing units for low-latency communication.
Unified Data Repository
The Unified Data Repository (UDR) is the central 5G Core component that stores subscription, policy, and application data. It ensures secure, real-time access for network functions using standardized, high-performance interfaces.
Northbound APIs
5G systems use RESTful northbound APIs via the Network Exposure Function (NEF) and Common API Framework (CAPIF). These allow external applications to leverage network capabilities like precise QoS control and device location tracking.

Everything you need to know about 5G certification training with Koenig Solutions.

5G is the fifth-generation mobile network technology defined by 3GPP, delivering high-speed data, ultra-low latency, and massive device connectivity through New Radio (NR) and a Service-Based Architecture (SBA). Key components include gNB (NextGen NodeB), 5G Core (5GC), User Equipment (UE), Network Functions (NFs) like AMF, SMF, UPF, and technologies such as network slicing, mmWave, and Massive MIMO. It supports deployment in both Standalone (SA) and Non-Standalone (NSA) modes.
5G training is designed for wireless engineers, network architects, telecom technicians, RF planners, and IT professionals involved in deploying or managing next-generation networks. It serves entry-level learners with basic telecom knowledge up to experienced engineers transitioning from 4G/LTE. Roles in RAN, core, security, and IoT integration benefit from structured learning paths aligned with real-world deployment needs.
Learners should have foundational knowledge of LTE/4G architecture, IP networking, and basic radio frequency principles before starting 5G training. Familiarity with protocols like TCP/IP, SIP, and Diameter, along with understanding of mobile network operations, is essential. Some advanced courses require prior completion of vendor-specific LTE certifications or hands-on experience in telecom environments.
Koenig's 5G training prepares learners for the Qualcomm 5G Associate-Level Certification, covering both Standalone (SA) and Non-Standalone (NSA) modes. The exam validates proficiency in 5G fundamentals, architecture, mmWave, Massive MIMO, beam management, air interface operation, signaling flows, and protocol stack. It aligns with industry standards defined in 3GPP Releases 15–17.
The Qualcomm 5G Associate-Level Certification exam consists of 80 multiple-choice questions, must be completed within two hours, and requires a passing score not publicly disclosed but estimated around 70%. The exam is proctored online via Prometric, covers material from three prep courses, and is valid for three years. Retake fee is $195 if the first attempt fails.
5G training at Koenig lasts 30–35 hours and is delivered in live online 1-on-1, private batch, classroom, and flexi-start formats with guaranteed-to-run dates. The program includes instructor-led sessions, hands-on labs, and access to digital courseware. Learners can choose schedules based on availability, ensuring flexibility without compromising depth of technical coverage.
