    acceptance criteria for target, acceptable and nonconforming
    conditions on bare printed boards. PCB manufacturers and assemblers alike rely
    on this internationally recognized document to improve their understanding of
    printed board quality issues as well as help enhance communication with their
    suppliers and customers. This makes IPC-A-600 one of the most widely used
    standards ever published by IPC, and a natural choice for certification.

    Choose from Two Tiers of Instruction


    • Certified IPC Application Specialist (CIS) training focuses on what line workers, operators, inspectors, engineers
