What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populatedfrom NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

Electrical malfunctions in ignition and lighting systems — diagnose using testing devices and computer software with reduced oversight on transit or rail equipment.
Defective wiring and relays — adjust, repair, or replace in air-conditioning and safety control systems using electrician's tools in a scheduled maintenance environment.
Solder connections — apply to fixtures, outlets, and equipment wiring with consistent quality following established procedures at a transportation repair shop.
Circuit defects including malfunctioning transistors — locate, remove, and resolve independently by cross-referencing schematics on familiar vehicle platforms.
Reassembled electrical assemblies — test after repair using multimeters and diagnostic software to confirm system function before returning equipment to service.
Service record documentation — maintain accurately for multiple vehicles using document management or office suite software in a fleet maintenance setting.
Manufacturer technical bulletins and wiring diagrams — read and apply to resolve recurring faults on standard transportation equipment models.
Ignition and safety control system components — replace and calibrate following OEM specifications with minimal supervisory direction.
Multiple electrical subsystems — monitor during operational checks to detect anomalies before they escalate into service failures.
Workplace coordination — communicate repair status and parts needs clearly to supervisors and parts staff to keep maintenance schedules on track.
