These curriculums were developed and are delivered by Uptime Institute senior experts with hands-on experience in data center design and operations. These courses are unique in that they are not delivered by instructors with only theoretical grasp on the topics.

Accredited Tier Specialist (ATS) is delivered to data center Owners and Operators, and the Consultants, Architects, and Contractors that support them. For Owners and Operators, best value is realized when specialists from both the Facilities and IT disciplines participate. This ensures a consistency of language and improved communication within groups who must collaborate successfully for the data center to deliver the highest level of uptime. ATS provides instruction on both design solutions (Tier) and operations (Operational Sustainability).

Accredited Tier Designer (ATD) is specifically matched to the unique needs of Professional Design Engineers. Typically, participants are employed by engineering firms and design data centers as a profession. This course is highly technical and assumes experience with various data center equipment, technologies, and solutions.
