Description
Electronic Technology is an eleven month program designed to provide entry-level training as well as
retraining of the local workforce. The training is accomplished through lectures and labs, computer
software simulators, software testing and research. Students begin learning at the component level and
move through complex circuits, and then into complete systems. Installation and repair of electronics
equipment is stressed. Emphasis is placed on the proper use of test equipment and troubleshooting
skills to enhance the students’ ability to find faults, and to make repairs as quickly and safely as
possible.
Students are taught proper safety procedures to assist them in safe work practices on the job. Students
are also taught the importance of human relations when associating with employers, other employees,
and customers. Student learning includes, but is not limited to, introduction to basic electronics,
terminology, electronic component nomenclature, circuit configuration, component analysis, and basic
circuit design. Students will learn soldering skills and to read schematics. Troubleshooting is stressed at
