Printed Circuit Boards 101
An evening of learning about printed circuit board design from an industry professional and OACETT.
Hosted in CA413 (ACCE Building)
Join me, Adrian Gibbons, for a technical meet and greet at Algonquin College on November 30th, 2022 from 1900 to 2100 hours in room CA413 in the ACCE building.
About Me: I’m an Algonquin Alumni. I graduated from the Electrical Engineering Technology program and the Wireless Mobility Telecommunications Engineering Technician program. I’m a Certified Engineering Technologist (C.E.T.) member of the Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists and an IPC Certified Interconnect Designer (CID). I’ve been working in the industry for more than five years, with 3.5 years as a PCB designer and I spent two years as part-time faculty teaching at Algonquin College. I’m passionate about engineering and education and I’m excited to introduce you to this high technology discipline.
