INTRODUCTION

ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

BY GIBSON TECH ED

This program was created by instructors, engineers and technical authors with years of practical experience in electronics repair and troubleshooting. This step-by-step instruction program, with a mixture of interactive software, video's, hands-on lab's, kits, test equipment, reading assignments, fill-in worksheets, quizzes and tests, will help give any student the necessary practice and skills to be a certified electronics technician.

High-Tech Skills are Made Easy

The abilities needed to perform electronics fabrication, installation and troubleshooting are in high demand today in all areas of electronics including satellites, fiber optics, telecommunications, robotics and microcontrollers, and especially the field of computers. Safety is a key concern and we give a thorough coverage of the issues.

Lots of Diagrams and Animation to Increase Understanding

The training manuals and interactive-software cover electronics technology, job safety, electronics assembly, reading of schematic diagrams, soldering, use of hand-tools, use of test equipment, and troubleshooting techniques. The scope of subject matter is from Basic Electronics Fundamentals, DC Concepts, AC Concepts, Digital Concepts, Solid State Devices, Robotics, Microprocessors and Micro Controllers.

Hands-on Lab's and Computer-Aided Learning

The hands-on part of this program will give the student many soldering connections to improve their skills in soldering and electronic component troubleshooting and replacement. Students wire circuits on solderless circuit boards, first with the help of pictorials and them directly from schematic diagrams. Interactive software is used to enhance understanding with captivating animation, audio enhancements, color illustrations and diagrams, and more.

Students Progress at their Own Pace

This open-entry and open-exit style of training allows students to progress at their own pace. Students may enter and/or exit the program at any time. Additionally, the design of this program enables teachers to focus on students having difficulty with a concept or experiment, while enabling the other students to continue their progress. This is the ideal program for schools, institutions and industry, where step-by-step instruction and self-paced advancement can accommodate a wide variety of students.

Expandable Curriculum and Job Skill Focus

Our program functions as a solid electronics foundation for students. With the various extensions to the program, we will help you setup a program to effectively train students with the skills they need for careers in highly demanded technology fields. Our offerings include areas such as robotics and microcontrollers, fiber optics and lasers, data networking, communications technology, and advanced electronics. Researchers indicate there are thousands of unfilled technology jobs in the marketplace, and students who gain the necessary skills stand ready to enjoy rewarding careers.

Instructor and Student Support

With toll-free numbers, fax machines, and email, support is at hand 24-hours a day. During regular

business hours telephone support is available to students and instructors.
