Free Telecoms Training Matrix Template

Quick answer

A telecoms training matrix records fibre and civils people against NRSWA units, height or climb tickets, and any network-operator courses their roles need — with expiry dates. Download this free Excel template and give each major operator induction its own column if cycles differ. FieldClear can import later. It does not grant network access.

What’s in the template

An Excel matrix for telecoms contractors whose build, splice and climb teams share a programme but hold different operator tickets. A single “trained” column hides which network the person is actually cleared for.

• Worker rows with name, role and worker type — so fibre engineers, civils gangs and climb teams sit on the same sheet.
• Conditional formatting for expired, expiring and current dates.
• A distinction between blank (no record held) and N/A (not required).
• An evidence location column for certificates and card images.
• A role requirements sheet you can match to the grades you actually employ.

Example columns for telecoms crews

How to use it

1. Add civils, splice and climb people — including subcontract build partners.
2. Give each operator ticket its own column if expiry cycles differ.
3. Enter expiry dates as DD/MM/YYYY.
4. Use N/A when a column does not apply; leave blank only when missing.
5. Review before night build windows and rooftop works.
6. When the tracker is a messaging group, upload for a live matrix.

Disclaimer

Example columns are not a mandatory list. Network operators set their own access rules. This is not legal advice. A green cell is not clearance onto a network, pole or rooftop.
