Course Description

In this course you will gain skills and knowledge required to commission electronics and communication systems. This will involve undertaking commissions procedures of electronics and communications systems whilst adhering with predetermined parameters and delivery to client. The course also allows you to develop understanding around the following: 

  • working safetly 
  • testing system parameters
  • analysing and adjusting to assure optium performance
  • workplace procedures
  • documenting final operating parameters and settings

This course is delivered and assessed with the following:

  • UEEEC0016 - Develop engineering solutions to RF amplifier problems; and
  • UEEEC0044 - Modify - redesign electronics and communications systems
