2024 NTIA Spectrum Management Training Classes
Federal Spectrum Use and Spectrum Management Overview
Open to U.S. Government Employees and Federal Contractors ONLY
The overview class scheduled for mid-summer is postponed. We expect to offer it before the end of the calendar year. We apologized for the schedule change.
We are planning to off NTIA’s multi-day spectrum management overview class at various times throughout the year. This class will be live virtually via Microsoft Teams or similar platform.
The class provides a basic level introduction to the federal government’s approach in providing the effective and efficient use of spectrum; spectrum management principles; spectrum management processes, procedures and techniques.
The course also includes presentations on the history of the government’s history of spectrum use and management, the NTIA equipment and system certification, and frequency assignment processes and procedures.
The daily schedule will be posted or emailed during the week prior to the class.

Spectrum XXI: Electronic Processing of Spectrum Proposals.
Open to U.S. Government Employees and Federal Contractors
Spectrum XXI (SXXI) provides federal agencies with an automated tool to support the electronic processing of spectrum proposals with NTIA.
This client/server software facilitates the exchange of frequency assignment requests and supports the frequency assignment process. Spectrum XXI includes several engineering programs, such as point-to-point and coverage plots with terrain features. It includes the required compliance checks that all frequency proposals submitted to NTIA must include.
Spectrum XXI training is presented as a five day live on-line instructor-led virtual class.
To register for training please contact your agency’s IRAC Frequency Assignment Subcommittee (FAS) Representative.
If you have questions about Spectrum XXI software or training, please contact SXXISupport.
Any schedule changes will be posted it here and on the OSMtraining email listserv.

EL-CID: Spectrum Certification for Today
The Equipment Location-Certification Information Database (EL-CID) was developed to provide an automated tool to support electronic processing of spectrum certification requests at NTIA. The database structure and design is based upon NTIA’s comprehensive database (OSM Data Dictionary) developed by NTIA to replace the Government Master File database that is currently used to support various spectrum management activities, particularly the frequency assignment process.
EL-CID On-Line (ECO)
We offer live virtual instruction using Microsoft Teams periodically throughout the year. Interested persons can sign up for through the EL-CID Online (ECO) Help Desk. In-depth video instruction is also available when user clicks HELP on the ECO site.
