Overview
IPC Designer Certification or CID (Certified Interconnect Designer) and CID+ are the industry’s only premier professional development programme targeted toward those working in the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design industry.
Our trainers have a wealth of knowledge and experience in both professional development within the industry and in PCB and electronic design. The IPC is a worldwide membership organisation representing all facets of the industry including design, printed circuit board manufacturing and electronics assembly.
The CID professional development programme provides delegates with the foundations of design decision-making and an understanding of the practical applications of IPC standards in the design and manufacture of PCB’s. The course covers the fundamentals of component placement and track routing, design considerations, layout principles, component and assembly issues, all of which need to be met to create a high quality and effective end product.
This qualification is now being championed by many organisations that are keen for PCB designers to hold this qualification when undertaking electronic design work.
High-speed boards have been around for many years now and even though they are a fairly rare occurrence for most PCB design and engineering professionals, sooner or later you may have a high-speed PCB design project arrive on your desk. The question is, will you know how to deal with it? And what does a […]
Applications Engineer Bob Sadowski has this month successfully gained the advanced qualification of CID+ Trainer, meaning he is now able to deliver the coveted IPC CID+ PCB design qualification. The IPC CID+ course provides existing PCB designers with the advanced principles of PCB design and manufacture and provides greater understanding of assembly processes. The course […]
