What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populatedfrom NSX Competency Framework

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

Electromechanical system performance — evaluate using oscilloscopes, bridges, and electronic voltmeters with minimal oversight during scheduled production testing cycles.
Electrical, electronic, and mechanical components — modify, maintain, or repair to restore proper functioning in response to standard fault conditions on the shop floor.
Assembly sequences — determine independently by reading blueprints and wiring diagrams for moderately complex subassemblies in a manufacturing or field-service environment.
Instrumentation software — install and configure in microprocessor-based control systems following vendor documentation and established site procedures.
Component dimensions and clearances — verify using precision measuring tools and document results against engineering tolerances in a quality-control workflow.
Soldered electrical connections — produce and inspect to IPC or equivalent workmanship standards while assembling units in a mid-volume production environment.
Equipment malfunctions — troubleshoot using systematic diagnostic methods, applying deductive reasoning to isolate faults in electromechanical assemblies.
CAD and analytical software — use to review design drawings and interpret test data when supporting engineering changes on existing equipment.
Quality control analyses — perform on completed assemblies, identifying out-of-tolerance conditions and initiating corrective action through established reporting channels.
Maintenance records and technical reports — write accurately to document repair actions, parts used, and test results in a department database or ERP system.
