ANL Fundamentals Learning Path

Explore TM Forum’s methodology for evaluating network autonomy, with insights into measuring AN Levels, components, and workflows.

The Autonomous Network (AN) and Autonomous Network Levels (ANL) are concepts jointly proposed by TM Forum and industry partners which aim to evolve network infrastructure and operations systems using automation and intelligence. Over the past four years, systematic AN concepts, standards, implementation methods and application use cases have been defined, resulting in a resounding consensus on AN across the industry and significant achievements in terms of AN practices and deployment.

This learning path brings together the set of TM Forum’s micro courses to provide a full appreciation of how Autonomous Networks are defined at a certain level and the methodology that an operator can use to measure the maturity against the standard defined model.

Format: Self-paced

Level: Fundamental

Duration: 2 days (4 x half-day courses)

Access period: *30 days (default) from date of enrolment.
