EMC Engineer or Technician?
Engineers know the math and physics of EMC. Technicians know the instruments and test setups. Engineers need good writing and verbal skills. Technicians need to know the pitfalls of real measurements. All applicants have to be competent in the fundamentals, i.e., coupling, filters, shielding, etc. as well as the specifications which apply to their particular specialty. Current and past service members can apply for iNARTE Certification for free with proof of service. Please contact our office at admin@inarte.org for details.Ongoing Certification Requirements
