Applied Electronics Micro-Credentials
Stackable to Degree Program
These microcredentials align with requirements for the Electrical Technology-Electronics A.A.S. should students choose to continue their education after obtaining the microcredential.
Applied Electronics for Manufacturing Assemblers
Upon completion of this microcredential, students will be able to understand and apply electrical quantities and their measurement, DC circuits, AC circuits, magnetism and basic instrumentation and electrical power. They will demonstrate the use of electrical and mechanical equipment and instrumentation, and construct a CAD generated circuit board demonstrating the skills of bread boarding, soldering, crimping, heat shrinking, wiring, and mounting jacks, controls and switches.
This is designed to be a stackable microcredential as a beginning Microcredential. The next step would be the Applied Electronics for Manufacturing Technicians and then the Electrical Technology-Electronics AAS program.
Applied Electronics for Manufacturing Technicians
Upon completion of this microcredential, students will be able to design, construct, and analyze electronic circuits, and demonstrate the use of electrical and mechanical equipment and instrumentation.
This is designed to be a stackable microcredential as an intermediate step between the Electrical Technician Microcredential and the Electrical Technology-Electronics A.A.S. program.
