Manufacturing Engineering for Electronics Assembly: Introduction

Onboarding manufacturing engineers new to the electronics industry can be a daunting task. What if you had a self-paced course that provides a comprehensive overview of the roles and responsibilities of manufacturing engineers in our industry? IPC worked with industry subject-matter experts and instructional designers to create an introductory course that takes approximately 3-1/2 hours to complete. In addition to understanding the role, participants will also learn to use documentation control systems, product identification, and product traceability.
