IPC-7711/21 for Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) 17-FEB-2025
REWORK… REPAIR… & REMAIN COMPETITIVE
The printed circuit board is loaded with expensive components...and it does not work! There is no starting over, and the choices seem ominous: scrap it or send it out. Either way, it's going to cost you. Do you have a third option? IPC's Rework, Repair and Modification Training and Certification Program offers your company the money-saving alternative: fix it yourself to IPC standards!
This train-the-trainer program teaches industry-approved techniques on through hole and surface mount rework, land, conductor and laminate repair. It also provides a flexible, highly skills-oriented training program with teaching materials that enable a qualified representative from your company to train operators on a variety of procedures from the IPC-7711/7721 Rework of Electronic Assemblies, Repair and Modification of Printed Boards and Electronic Assemblies.
BRINGING REWORK & REPAIR TRAINING TO YOUR COMPANY
There are two levels of training - Certified IPC Trainer (CIT) and Certified IPC Specialist (CIS).
Companies participating in IPC's Rework, Repair and Modification Training and Certification Program send candidates to Approved IPC-7711/7721 Training Centers for forty hours of intensive, hands-on instruction. Candidates who pass the classroom exam and skills demonstrations are recognised by IPC as 7711/21 Certified IPC Trainers and leave with a lesson plan, visuals and materials for training Application Specialists (operators) classified as Certified IPC Specialists (CIS) on up to nine different assembly rework and repair modules. Certified IPC Trainers are certified for two years.
Certified IPC Trainer (CIT) training covers common rework and repair techniques. Certified IPC Specialist (CIS) training is modular and only the introductory module, Common Procedures, is a required element. Other CIS level modules are taught based on a company's needs. CIS are also certified for two years for each module taken.
