London to Host First IPC Designers Learning Symposium
October 21, 2003 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Northbrook, Ill. — The IPC Designers Council announces the launch of the first Designers Learning Symposium for printed circuit board (PCB) designers in the European marketplace.
Supported by the IPC United Kingdom (UK) Designers Council Chapter, Premier EDA Solutions and the Fachverband Elektronik-Design (FED — Berlin), the European IPC Designers Learning Symposium will take place in May 2004 in London, England.
As with IPC's North American Designers Learning Symposiums, the European event will offer a technical conference with papers and presentations dealing with the industry's hottest topics, as well as several workshops on the necessary skills that PCB designers and others involved in engineering or manufacturing can immediately apply.
The European Designers Learning Symposium will also hold an interactive, half-day Off-Site Applied Training segment at a leading Interconnect Manufacturing Service/PCB company.
Additionally, IPC plans to build on the success of the IPC designer certification programs in the UK. Designers who aspire to become Certified Interconnect Designers will be able to participate in the Designer Certification Program at the symposium. Developed to assess one's knowledge of how to transform a schematic into a reliable rigid PCB design that can be easily manufactured, assembled and tested, these certification classes are based on several critical IPC documents that link design principles to the end product use of the printed wiring assembly.
The IPC Designers Council is a professional society of designers forming an international network. Its mission is to promote printed board and printed board assembly design as a profession and to encourage, facilitate and promote the exchange of information and integration of new design concepts through communications, seminars, workshops and professional certification through a network of local chapters.
IPC is a trade association dedicated to the competitive excellence and financial success of its more than 2,200 member companies, which represent all facets of the electronic interconnection industry, including design, printed circuit board manufacturing and electronics assembly.
