Certifying and Supporting the Electronics Professional
ETA represents the electronics industry, from the technician and educator to the corporate institution. Widely known for electronics certification programs and accredited by the International Certification Accreditation Council (ICAC), ETA helps electronics technicians advance their knowledge and excel in their fields; while connecting employers to qualified electronics professionals.
ETA International Announces a NEW Electric Vehicle Technician Certification In his State of the Union address, President Obama announced his goal to “…become the first country to have one million Electric Vehicles on the road by 2015”. With a waiting list of some 20,000 Americans for the electric Nissan Leaf alone, and billions of dollars in federal grants to manufacturers and educational institutions, America may be well on the way to achieving this goal. Electronics Technicians Association International (ETA) is at the forefront of providing new and seasoned auto technicians a resource to obtain their Electric Vehicle Technician (EVT) specialized training and certification. With an ETA Electric Vehicle Technician certification, present and future auto technicians must demonstrate that they are capable of safely troubleshooting and repairing Electric Vehicles coming on the market over the next several years. With high voltage (300 VDC and higher) and the safety issues that follow, technicians will be required to receive specialized training before they are allowed to open the hood of an EV. The government’s EV initiative has already granted millions of dollars to educational institutions for education and workforce training programs. ETA requires hands-on training and experienced EV instructors. ETA is accredited by the International Certification Accreditation Council (ICAC). You will be secure in knowing the ETA Certification Logo as your auto technician’s credential means they are expertly trained and capable of caring for the customer’s new EV.
