Semtech Announces Open LoRaWAN Academy™ Registration for Enterprises and Developers

Free educational modules simplify and accelerate the development of
LoRa^®-based IoT applications

CAMARILLO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Semtech
Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading supplier of high performance
analog and mixed signal semiconductors and advanced algorithms, has
announced the open registration of the LoRaWAN Academy for everyone,
from large enterprises to individual developers. The LoRaWAN Academy
provides comprehensive, free educational modules for students,
engineers, developers, and enterprises to develop Internet of Things
(IoT) applications using LoRa^®-based technologies.

“Developers are the most important part of any modern technology
platform, and the LoRaWAN Academy is there to help them get up to speed
on one of the fastest growing IoT-enabling technologies out there today,
Semtech’s LoRa
devices and wireless radio frequency technology (LoRa Technology).
The LoRaWAN Academy will enable developers to get their LoRa-based
solutions to market faster as well as simplify development,” said Steven
Hegenderfer, Senior Director of the Developer Ecosystem in Semtech’s
Wireless Sensing and Products Group. “We are working with the
LoRaWAN®-based ecosystem to develop and drive material that is
beneficial to the community. Providing completely free modules focused
on building LoRa-based applications gives students, engineers,
developers, and enterprises the jump-start they need to build robust,
innovative IoT applications.”

The LoRaWAN Academy was first launched in late 2017 and targeted to
universities. Since its initial inception, several universities from
around the world implemented LoRaWAN Academy curriculum to prepare
students for the IoT job market by training their students on developing
LoRa-based solutions and the open LoRaWAN protocol. The
program will now be available to anyone who is interested in building
LoRa-based applications. The LoRaWAN Academy includes 10 modules of
self-paced online classes that includes video lectures, supplemental
reading materials and hands-on assignments.

“LoRa Technology is a leading technology and recognized as the de facto
platform for developing IoT applications,” said Dr. S.A. Pasupathy,
Head, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering of
Kumaraguru College of Technology (KCT). “With the LoRaWAN Academy
available for anyone and free, this is a great opportunity for
participants to learn and realize the return of investment of LoRa as
well as having ability to accelerate their applications to the market
and their career growth.”
