Yealink Handset Training Day

Last week, ProVu ran a Yealink handset training course down at the University College London (UCL). Roy from Yealink UK was also present to oversee the course and answer the commercial stuff.

The course is designed to cover the range of Yealink products and give a better technical understanding of the products. Attendees should be able to configure the Yealink phones and perform simple diagnostics to trace problems.

A wide range of topics was covered: ranging from the very basics of setting up a Yealink phone to configuring OpenVPN and discussing Yealink security features, amongst other things.

Here is a picture of me demonstrating the Yealink video phone making a video call with a Protalk Door Entry unit:

There was a Yealink goody-bag for people to take away at the end of the day which included a Yealink cup for you to SIP from.
