Program Overview

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

This online distance program is only available to study while remaining in your home country and does not qualify for study/work permit eligibility in Canada.

This program focuses on the skills needed to assemble, install, troubleshoot and repair electronic equipment used by consumers, businesses and industry. Students learn electronics theory and how to work with circuits and the various components of electronic systems such as capacitors, resistors, semiconductors and amplifiers. The focus is on a broad understanding of the field that students can then apply to specific areas of interest or employment.

Full Description

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

This online distance program is only available to study while remaining in your home country and does not qualify for study/work permit eligibility in Canada.

This is a Distance Education program in which you complete all courses (modules) by studying at home, with an interactive learning package on a personal computer. Laboratory projects and exercises are also carried out in this way. The learning materials, provided in a downloadable file format, with 23 courses (modules) contain text, audio, 2D and 3D animations, computer-based testing and CircuitLogix and 3DLab simulation software.

You may enrol at any time during the year (open enrolment) and complete the modules in the learning package at your own speed. The typical completion time is 32 weeks, but there are no time limits.

PREREQUISITES

Ontario Secondary School Diploma (with credits at or above general level) or equivalent or mature student status. An electronics background is helpful but not essential.

ADVANCED STANDING

If you have finished the Electromechanical Technician program, you are exempted from 18 modules of the Electronics Technician program.
