From 25-29 June 2018, the Rohde & Schwarz/ITU Academy workshop on "Implementation of radio monitoring systems according to ITU-R recommendations" was held again at Rohde & Schwarz headquarters in Munich. Since 2013, this training workshop is repeatedly hosted by Rohde & Schwarz under the umbrella of ITU-D. The workshop is part of the ITU Academy training portfolio and conducted within the framework of a capacity-building partnership entered into between ITU and Rohde & Schwarz. 

About 20 professional and technical staff from government, operators, universities and regulatory agencies responsible for planning, implementation and operation of spectrum monitoring systems took part in the training. The participants learned about various spectrum monitoring subjects ranging from technical basics to ITU reports and recommendations, deriving measurements and procedures and monitoring equipment and systems. The theoretical lessons were complemented by practical exercises.
