How the Certification Programme Works
The IPC-A-610 training and certification programme has two tiers of instruction - Certified Trainers and Application Specialists.
Candidates are sent by their companies to receive five days of training in the IPC-A-610 document at an approved certification training centre.

This programme will greatly assist companies dedicated to ISO-9000 or other quality assurance initiatives. As the IPC specification is a widely accepted standard, this will have immediate recognition throughout the electronics industry.
