Why Designer Learning Symposiums

The IPC and the IPC Designers Council has been supporting PCB designers for over 25 years - certifying over 3,500 designers through our industry-accredited Designer Certification programs (CID & CID+), establishing a network of local Designer Council chapters, publishing design-related standards, and offering various educational workshops. We understand the importance of today's PCB designer, and how difficult it can be to find quality educational programming dedicated to your needs.

Designers Learning Symposiums were created for designers who mean business - novice and expert alike. The challenge for today's designers is to keep up with ever-changing technologies. Designers need a new knowledge base and skill set that will allow them to take advantage of job opportunities, educational venues and future technologies. Challenges such as new component packages, high-density interconnect (HDI) materials and processes, surface mount technology, high speed/high frequency, signal integrity, RoHS, etc. Other workshops and training seminars offer you some good "textbook" information, but IPC Designers Learning Symposiums will provide you with hands-on skills you can apply immediately.

We created the Designers Learning Symposium to provide designers with an invaluable educational and networking opportunity few other programs can match.
