Program Overview: What is 5G Advanced and Network Evolution?
5G Advanced & Network Evolution is Edstellar's instructor-led technical program for telecom teams planning and operating 5G Advanced networks. Participants map the 5G evolution roadmap, configure a standalone core, plan RAN evolution, and design network slices. The focus stays on operator outcomes: reliable, secure, high-performing 5G networks.
Training is hands-on from the first module. Participants configure a standalone 5G core, model MIMO coverage and mmWave link budgets, and set up network slices in guided labs built on realistic network scenarios. Instructors coach your team through security audits and performance tuning, shaping content around your network environment, vendor mix, and workflows. The program closes with a capstone 5G Advanced network design the team plans, builds, reviews, and presents.
5G networks grow more complex with every 3GPP release, and teams that configure by habit inherit misconfigured slices, weak security posture, and underperforming RAN. This program teaches your engineers to plan evolution deliberately: standards-based design, hardened security, and tuned performance from day one. Every technique is practiced in labs, so skills transfer directly to your network.
Engineers work through the 5G Advanced evolution path feature by feature in the lab capstone. By the end they hold a hands-on network design and the judgment to map your next upgrades.
Seven modules and 30 hours: 5G architecture, core network, RAN evolution, network slicing, security hardening, and performance tuning. Every module pairs concepts with a guided lab, so each technique is practiced. It closes with a capstone network design the team plans, builds, reviews, and presents.
Delivery is hybrid across virtual and onsite sessions, scheduled around your calendar. Cohorts train as one group or split into batches, with session materials and lab guides included for every participant.

Connect 5G Advanced Architecture With Configuration and Network Validation
Edstellar builds practical 5G Advanced capability by linking evolution decisions with core configuration, radio planning, slicing, and operational evidence. Network teams work through guided deployment and troubleshooting exercises before integrating their choices into an end-to-end design. Instructor review examines capacity assumptions, security controls, and measured service performance.

Consult
We assess mobile networking experience and current upgrade priorities to identify gaps in standalone core operation, RAN planning, slicing, or performance troubleshooting.
- Step 02
Plan
We progress from the evolution roadmap to core configuration, massive MIMO and O-RAN planning, slice design, security hardening, and an integrated network capstone.
- Step 03
Align
We align telecom instruction with the cohort’s LTE or 5G background and lab environment, allowing enough practice with network functions and KPI interpretation.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor reference topologies, capacity assumptions, and slice requirements to familiar operator scenarios while retaining guided work on beamforming, link budgets, and security.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants configure core functions, map QoS flows, audit security settings, and diagnose degraded networks, receiving feedback against registration traces and measured performance baselines.
- Step 06
Evaluate
