电子技术员

• 电子技术员通常要完成电气/电子技术方面的理科副学士学位，但有些职位可能需要本科学位。
• Most electronics-related college programs are accredited by ABET

1. Students can use ABET’s program search tool to find accredited programs. If the program you’re interested in isn’t listed, reach out to the school to double-check
2. Note, ABET accreditation is voluntary. Not being ABET accredited doesn’t mean the program isn’t good quality. Still, accreditation offers proof that the program’s curriculum meets rigorous standards. Many large employers prefer (or are required) to hire graduates of ABET-approved programs

• 常见的课程可能包括代数、物理、模拟和数字电子学、计算机编程语言、集成电路、工程入门、数字设计、嵌入式微控制器和网络。
• 一些工人通过电子学徒计划或通过入伍的军事训练开始工作。

1. For example, the U.S. Air Force features many electronics-related career fields and provides paid training opportunities for qualified candidates

• 电子技术员不需要大学的四年制学位就可以开始工作。学生可以在当地社区学院或职业培训学校完成副学士学位。
• 任何课程的一般考虑因素包括学费（州内/州外费率）、折扣、奖学金和课程交付选项（校内、在线或混合课程）。一些电子课程可能最适合现场学习，这样你就可以得到实践培训。
• 理想情况下，你会想要一个来自ABET认可的项目的学位! 

• 高中生可以通过学习英语、数学、物理和计算机科学等课程进行准备。
• 决定你是否想申请社区学院、职业学校或大学的副学士学位课程。大学的学费可能会更高，但要决定什么是适合你的。
• 想一想你可能想专攻的领域，如航空电子、光纤、汽车、无线通信或其他领域
• 寻找可供选择的、入门级的认证来完成，可以提高你的证书。
• 与老师或辅导员交谈，了解你可以在学习过程中获得真实世界的工作技能的机会。
• 申请从事电子产品的兼职工作，这样你可以获得经验，并在你的简历上引用一些工作经历
• 保存一份可能作为未来工作推荐人的联系人名单（包括电话号码或电子邮件）。
• Check out hobby books, read articles, and watch video tutorials about safe electronic repair
• Stay inspired by reading about successful tech entrepreneurs who started out by tinkering with electronics
• 由于存在安全风险，在没有专业人员监督的情况下，不要尝试对电子产品进行操作。
• Get a few basic electronics repair hand tools, a workbench, lamp, magnifier, anti-static mat and wrist strap, and other supplies you might need to tinker at home — but again, make sure you have a trained person around to help

1. One of the keys to safety is planning ahead and thinking about potential hazards. Make sure you closely follow all safety protocols to avoid exposure to shocks, burns, or harmful heavy metals like lead or mercury
