IPC-A-610, Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, is the most widely used specification published by IPC with an international reputation as THE source for end-product acceptance criteria in both consumer and high-reliability electronic assemblies.  A comprehensive and technical program, this certification will improve candidates’ accuracy of ‘discrimination’ between an ‘acceptable’ and ‘non-conforming’ electronic assembly per the IPC-A-610 standard, leading to continuous improvement in product quality and reliability.

It is a prerequisite of the Hands-On that candidates have earned their IPC/WHMA-A-620, Requirements and Acceptance for Cable and Wire Harness Assemblies, certification.

This advanced practical course builds on the IPC/WHMA-A-620 standard, focusing on the hands-on assembly and inspection of cable and wire harnesses. Participants will develop skills in soldering, crimping, splicing, shielding, and harness routing to meet high-reliability and space application requirements.

The J-STD-001 “Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies” has emerged as the preeminent authority for electronics assembly manufacturing. The standard describes materials, methods and verification criteria for producing high quality soldered interconnections. The standard emphasizes process control and sets industry-consensus requirements for a broad range of electronic products.

It is a prerequisite of the space addendum that candidates have earned their IPC-J-STD-001, Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies, certification.

The J-STD-001 Space and Military Applications Electronics Hardware Addendum is an additional module that extends IPC J-STD-001 to ensure the reliability of soldered electronic assemblies in low/zero atmosphere, extreme temperature variation and high vibration environments. 

IPC 7711/7721, Rework Modification and Repair of Electronic Assemblies, is the industry standard for restoring, modifying, and extending the life of printed circuit board assemblies through approved rework and repair techniques. Through this comprehensive, hands-on course participants will learn industry-approved procedures for removing and replacing surface-mount and through-hole components, as well as repairing land, conductor, and laminate damage. Emphasising both lecture and practical application, the course equips students with the skills needed to restore the functionality of high-value electronics while minimising scrap and preserving reliability.

IPC-J-STD-001, Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies, has emerged as the preeminent authority for electronics assembly manufacturing requirements. This certification covers the materials, methods and acceptance criteria to create high-quality soldered connections while emphasizing process control and setting industry-consensus requirements for the whole range of electronic products.

The J-STD-001 Space and Military Applications Electronics Hardware Addendum is an additional module that extends IPC J-STD-001 to ensure the reliability of soldered electronic assemblies in low/zero atmosphere, extreme temperature variation and high vibration environments.
