Length of Program: 1800 hours

Everyday electronics occupy a greater presence in our daily lives. Electronics has been used in a vast number of domestic and industrial applications such as: radio, television, medicine, video system, telephone, networks, aeronautics, office equipment, computers, etc. This explains why the choice of electronics as a career offers extensive job opportunities for students who wish to orient their studies where there is a known shortage in the current job market.

At the end of the course, technicians will have acquired sufficient basic electronics knowledge to be able to:

 
  • Master the operation of numerous circuits
  • Diagnose outages and repair electronic appliances
  • Use measuring and control devices in order to evaluate the condition of circuits

Qualified technicians are increasingly sought, around the world. Choosing a career in electronics, is choosing a high-tech field which is constantly evolving and expanding.

The Aviron Technical Institute of Montreal offers a full time electronics course totalling over 1800 hours.

This program is given in two stages, the first of which is designed to help the candidate acquire fundamental knowledge and skills through hands-on-activities allowing him/her to become familiar with electricity, electronic components and circuits, and the way they interact to produce desired work. At this stage, the candidate is also trained to use test instruments effectively.

The second stage of the program involves the practice of troubleshooting and repairing different types of electronic equipment, particularly those in the audio and video family, such as sound systems, TV receivers, recording and playback sets, etc. (analog and digital).

The knowledge and skills acquired through this program prepare the technician to work on a broad area of the market, beyond the limits of the familiar household items.

In conjunction with the Institute's Board, the Electronics Department organizes tours in renowned companies within the telecommunications and electronics sector. This allows students to develop contacts with future employers. The Institute also organizes an Open House event, which gives students opportunities to present their projects while allowing interested candidates to gain greater insight into their speciality area.

The Quebec's Ministry of Edication will issue a Professional Studies Diploma (SSVD-5771) to students who successfully pass theoretical and practical examinations.
