Olubunmi is a Test Technician for a fire alarm, communication and security system facility where he tests electronic components and final products, isolates non-compliant results and troubleshoots and fixes defective products. “When I initially started with the company I was in packing and then moved to assembly hoping that my previous experience in quality control coupled with my science degree would help me get a Test Technician position. However I was told without an electronics education or direct experience I wasn’t qualified. Once I completed the first 6 modules of the Electronics Certificate I was given the opportunity to work as a Technician.’

'The Electronics program helped me develop my troubleshooting skills making me more confident in my job. Now I train new technicians and offer technical support to the production line.’
