            Distance Education

                             Our graduates agree: distance education offers tremendous advantages
                             over traditional on-campus training.
                             As a CIE student, you can study on your own time, so you can keep your
                             present job and “earn while you learn”. CIE lets you tailor your education
                             to your career goals, so you can focus on just the training you need.

What is a Certified Electronics Technician?
    • Course 1B includes a study guide on how to prepare for the Associate-Level
      Certificated Electronics Technician (CET) exam.
    • This test is administered by the International Society of Certified Electronics
      Technicians and has over 46,000 certified technicians across the globe!
      Certification enables employers to separate knowledgeable job applicants from
      those with less training and skills.
    • Courses 1A, 2, 4, 5 and 11 also include the CET Study Guide.

Industrial Electronics with PLC Technology
COURSE 5

                 Course Description
                 Learn to troubleshoot PLCs!
                 Course 5 provides a thorough understanding of industrial
                 electronics and essential troubleshooting techniques
                 necessary to maintain, repair and program a wide array of
                 industrial electronic equipment including robotics, servos and
                 programmable logic controllers. In addition, students graduate
                 with the ability to read and understand many different types of
                 schematics and operational manuals.
                 This course provides a well-rounded e­ lectronics education, but
                 because it does not contain laboratory work, it is best suited for
                 those students who already have some previous education or
                 practical experience in electronics.
