IPC-A-610 for Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) 29-JULY-2024
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.
Certification will demonstrate your commitment to customer requirements and greatly assist any company dedicated to ISO-9000 or other quality assurance initiatives. The IPC training and certification has immediate recognition, legitimacy and value with thousands worldwide having been trained and certified in IPC-A-610.
