Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. [Nasdaq: GILT] and the Global VSAT Forum (GVF) today announced the upcoming availability of a new online installation training and certification course for Gilat SkyEdge II VSAT terminals. The course includes Gilat's easy to install SkyMagic solution, a waterproof hand held antenna pointing device, designed to assist the VSAT antenna installer in pointing the antenna to the desired satellite. The new course, GVF503G, will be offered on the GVF training portal.  
 
Gilat and GVF have produced the online VSAT installation training course specifically for Gilat SkyEdge II equipment. The new online course, which complements GVF’s existing online Satellite Training Academy, was developed and is being hosted by GVF’s training partner SatProf, Inc. The course uses animation and simulator-based interactivity to  highlight the ease of installation associated with Gilat's VSATs.  
 
Technicians who successfully complete this new training course will receive a joint GVF-Gilat certificate, validating their ability to deliver high-performance SkyEdge II satellite communications solutions to customers.
