Course Outline:
The Electrical Engineering Technology program provides trainees with the study materials that enables them to perform the tasks associated with the profession of an Electrical Engineer. This print-based curriculum has been developed to meet the subject requirements of an organization’s skills program. When combined with on-the-job training, this program will provide trainees with the comprehensive skills and knowledge they will need to perform in this technical area. The Electrical Engineering Technology curriculum starts with comprehensive training in mathematics and technical foundation skills. It progresses through studies in electrical, electronics, and mechanical principles and applications. This curriculum is appropriate for people who require the technical proficiency for an engineering position in an industrial, electronics or manufacturing organization. An optional Power Plant Engineering curriculum has been developed for the individual who works in a utility company or the power station of a manufacturing plant. Prior to starting this program, it is essential that the person possess a high school degree or the GED Equivalency Certificate. Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:
  • Explain how voltage, current, and resistance are related by Ohm’s Law and apply these principles to the design and function of electronic circuits.
  • Use electrical measuring instruments for troubleshooting.
  • Work with electronic measurement components such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, bridge-type instruments, and digital test equipment.
  • Explain the operation of electronic equipment and systems such as servo and control systems, numerical control systems, computers, programmable controllers, and microprocessors used in industry.

    Special Note:
    The Center for Degree Studies (CDS) of Education Direct offers Associate in Specialized Technology (AST) educational degrees in Electrical Engineering Technology and Electronics Technology. This program requires two years or more of study including a laboratory training session. Many of the courses listed in the following skills curricula are also covered in the CDS program. For more information regarding CDS, refer to Resource 12 of the Skills Development Guide or contact your Education Direct Training Consultant.
