Electrical and Electronics
Introducing a full range of apprenticeship and topical programs.
Nowadays, maintenance organizations are constantly faced with a dual challenge: how to upgrade the skills of experienced technicians to deal with the ever-changing demands of new technology, and meeting the needs of new employees through apprenticeship training programs.
Electrical and Electronics Training can help your company rise to these challenges, providing complete curricula for a wide range of topics, everything from basic electricity to microprocessors, and applied skills, such as field service training and equipment maintenance.
You and your employees can choose from a variety of self-paced topical programs that group together related coursework and are designed for flexibility, addressing the professional and personal needs of each student. Like all Penn Foster training systems, Electrical and Electronics courses are available in print, video or via Computer Based Training (CBT and CD).
