Electronics I:
This class is a part theory & part hands-on approach to learning the very basics of electronics (not electricity). We will study the various electronic components and their functions & applications. You will have the opportunity to breadboard your circuits, with the assistance of the instructor, and bench test them in the classroom.
Our instructor understands that your work is important to you and that you want the right training which meets your requirements, and that’s why we offer the flexibility to customize our training to address your specific needs.
Although a specific curriculum/agenda is presently established for each particular training class, on the first day of class, our expert trainer will inquire you about your work, what you already know, and what you would like to learn, to enable him/her to tailor the existing course to the precise needs of your job applications, as necessary.
We want to provide you with the best, value-added training available, that is advantageous to you and to your business organization!
