Also, new to IWCE is the Attracting Millennials to a Rewarding Career in Wireless Course, which will cover the graying of the wireless workforce and how industry emphasis on IP has created a gap in wireless education while more technologies demand wireless and RF access.
Government and association partners will present their latest initiatives at Town Hall Meetings. And, various communications technology topics will be presented in Spanish and Portuguese through IWCE en Español.
The IWCE General Session entitled "Rethinking Wireless" will discuss the changing wireless landscape and will provide an overview of many of the key concepts to modern wireless networks and what they all mean to current wireless and radio networks.
