IPC training and certification plays a key role in bringing value to the electronics industry. These training and certification programs, built around IPC standards, developed and approved by industry, are delivered in a classroom setting by IPC certified trainers.

ETECH is the leading training center for IPC training in Europe.
Our IPC trainers are trained and qualified to expertly guide your staff in achieving their IPC certificates.

The goals of the IPC Professional Training and Certification Programs are to:

· Provide a standardized set of industry developed, recognized, approved and traceable training programs to enhance understanding and appropriate application of criteria in the standard(s) specific to each course of instruction.
· Provide an understanding of accept/reject criteria to enhance an individual’s motivation and ability to consistently and correctly apply the criteria in the applicable standards.
· Teach methods and processes to help improve an individual’s skills and ability to achieve acceptable workmanship.
· Teach methods and techniques how to use, navigate, locate and to apply the criteria contained in the applicable standard(s) to the appropriate class or classes of production.

IPC’s training and certification programs are developed by and through consensus of industry, including but not limited to members of IPC and many others such as representatives from academia, government agencies, original equipment manufacturers (OEM), electronic manufacturing service companies (EMS) and circuit board manufacturing companies, and are used worldwide.

Participation in any IPC training and certification program is voluntary. Membership in IPC is not required for use of any IPC Training and Certification Program; however IPC member companies enjoy discount on the cost of training materials. Training consistency and program integrity is maintained by establishing certification criteria and control on all levels of the program through industry consensus and the use of standardized training materials.

Our goal is to design a customized training program that covers exactly what you want your employees to learn; so, we work closely with you to assess your needs, identify training topics and content, and determine the most effective training delivery methods. Through a personal interview process, we collaborate with customers to identify every aspect of their training needs. This assessment sets a solid foundation for their customized program.

From lectures to lab sessions to workshops, we can provide a custom mix of topics and approaches at your site, a convenient off-site location, or our ETECH facility. And whether we’re training a group as small as four people or a much larger one, we’re committed to providing alternatives that fit your objectives — and your budget.
Making employees more productive is our mission. We create new, specialized training programs for the electronics industry in need of specific skill clusters.

With ETECH custom programs, you can train more of your people for less by eliminating travel expenses, reducing costs-per-student, and minimizing the time employees spend away from the job.

Customized training gives your employees the opportunity to discuss sensitive company issues without being concerned about divulging information inappropriately. In addition, when employees train with their colleagues, it encourages an atmosphere of idea-sharing and support that carries over into the workplace.

Our expert instructors provide the concentrated training and support needed to get your staff to the next level. All of our instructors are knowledgeable professionals with strong teaching skills and extensive credentials. They are carefully selected to fit each program we offer.

Understanding that your company’s training needs are not static, we make an investment in evaluating course progress and make adjustments to achieve expected goals. When it’s all said and done, it’s all about preparing our customer’s staff to perform at a higher level, which often leads to greater job satisfaction and retention.

We look forward to meeting with you to discuss which training option is best for you and your organization. For more information please contact our business support team or call +31 (0) 45 711 23 90.

Providing required training to your employees is not the reason for your organization’s existence. You are running your business to execute on your organizational mission, serve your customers and achieve your goals. ETECH’s on-site program can help!

By outsourcing all your training needs to ETECH, you can keep your focus on your core mission.
Partnering with ETECH brings the best technology and training professionals to your training program means a lower overall risk to your business.

ETECH can place a certified Instructor(s) at your facility full- or part-time, and support their activities with our team of experts.
Running an effective employee training program is a critical function in every business. After all, your employees are your company. Well-trained employees are safer, more productive and more conscientious employees. On the other hand, improperly trained employees can lead to accidents, failed audits, costly fines or negative press.

By outsourcing your training program, a small or large business can access the subject-matter expertise, experience in preparing quality instructional materials and professional presentation and facilitation skills.

ETECH's on-site program is giving your people access to people who know how to train. That’s something that is separate from subject matter expertise.

For example, your best solder operator doesn’t necessarily have the training or talent to teach others how to solder. They may not have the ability to keep learners engaged, recognize when their message is not getting through, or how to measure understanding. They may not know how to pace training or design instruments to assess skill level before or after training.

An experienced, professional trainer has those abilities. Even better, they come with training materials and methodologies that have been proven effective.
Outsourcing can save on costs, give you access to the latest technology and help you keep up with industry standards.
Just because you have done something one way in the past, doesn’t mean it is how you should do it in the future. Trends, people and requirements change and that all affects how we do business.

On-the-job training, also known as OJT, is a hands-on method of teaching the skills, knowledge, and competencies needed for employees to perform a specific job within the workplace. Employees learn in an environment where they will need to practice the knowledge and skills obtained during their training.

With OJT training programs, ETECH can assist your company in establishing a planned, structured approach to OJT, resulting in increased workforce competence, greater motivation and overall improvement in quality.

Companies can use OJTs to train promising job candidates who have some - but not all - of the skills necessary for the job. A rigorous training plan is put in place to ensure that the employee has the skills needed to be successful, contributing to long term retention.

OJT training uses the existing workplace tools, machines, documents, equipment, and knowledge to teach an employee how to effectively do their job.

Training takes place within the employee's normal job environment and may occur as he or she performs their actual work. Or it may happen elsewhere within the workplace using dedicated training rooms, workstations, or equipment.

There are several approaches to implementation of structured "On-the-Job" systems. Call ETECH and we will assist you in designing a development plan that meets your organizational goals.

Comprehensive assessments are an integral part of education. Whether you like it or not, evaluating students to see what they know is as much a part of the classroom as the lesson delivery itself.

The needs assessment is an important step in performance improvement.

ETECH identifies the gaps between the desired and current knowledge, skills, and performance and specifying root causes to determine if there is a need for training, or if training is the appropriate intervention.

When it comes to the use of assessments, it’s important to develop a relevant, comprehensive measure of progress. This insight gives instructors more control over their classrooms and strengthens their ability to help students succeed.

By visiting your site regularly, ETECH can help you with changes or improvements to your current training program.

ETECH will regularly visit your site to follow the progress of your training program and to help when changes or improvements to your program are required.

ETECH can also guide and provide feedback to your instructor about how your instructor is providing /teaching the training program.

Being a good training provider takes preparation, skill, and flexibility and includes best practice elements to help guarantee to better develop, deliver and evaluate training and training materials.

Many Instructors struggle with the development of internal learning materials. Our course designers have vast experience in developing and analyzing learning materials. We can assist your Instructors with new course development.

Training materials should be written in the language and grammar of the everyday speech the participants can understand. Training developers should ensure that readability and language choices match the intended audience.

Instruction must be provided in the use of language in the training material the participant can understand. Similarly, if the participant’s vocabulary is limited or there is evidence of low literacy among participants, the training must account for that limitation.

Training programs should present information, ideas, and skills that participants see as directly useful in their working lives. Successful transfer of learning occurs when the participant can see how information presented in a training session can be applied in the workplace.

To ensure continued accuracy, ETECH provides a service to review and test new or revised training materials for clarity and accuracy.

Course development is the design of a new course or the revision of an existing one. By designing or revising the course of your choosing, you can focus on what you really want your students or employees to learn, and instruct them on what they should do with that learning at the end of the course.

At, ETECH we have dedicated instructional designers that possess extensive experience designing and/or revising courses and programs for clients all over the world. Our courses are designed to be clear, provide measurable standards of performance, and reflect the expectations of performance in the workplace of our clients.

With all course development and revision we assure that each program represented by our company, results in an outcome appropriate to the electronics industry. This includes ensuring the course is coherent and complete, and there are many instances where companies require specific training materials to meet their needs.
