Quality Management for Electronics and Circuit Board Assembly

Electronics and circuit board assembly is expanding in African manufacturing, where tiny defects such as poor solder joints or misplaced components cause costly field failures. This course builds quality control for assembly processes, covering solder quality, component handling, inspection criteria and electrostatic discharge control. Participants learn to catch defects early and hold quality across delicate assembly operations.
