CERTIFICATION IPC-A-610 CERTIFIED IPC SPECIALIST (CIS)

Course Description

To improve an individual’s skill and ability to distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable electronic assemblies, the goal of IPC-A-610 Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) training is to improve their skill and ability to discriminate between acceptable and unacceptable electronic assemblies. Students learn the reason why things are done in school assemblies by learning how to accept or reject them. An intensive three (3) day paragraph-by-paragraph study of the IPC-A-610 Standard is provided by the IPC-A-610 Certified IPC Specialist Training and Certification Course.

Certification

Students will take open book written exams at the conclusion of the Course. An IPC-A-610 Certified IPC Specialist Certification is valid for two (2) years after successfully completing this course. A relevant Recertification course/training is available to IPC-A-610 Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) skilled students who have previously achieved their Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) certification in the last two years.
