  1. Hi Andy,

    I was an EMC test engineer (4 yrs.) and then an EMC design engineer for Cisco Systems in San Jose, CA for 18.5 yrs. and I retired in 2011. I now would like to come out of retirement and I think that I would like to work again in EMC testing. Do you have training that would allow me to apply for EMC testing positions? I am not affiliated with any company. Specifically, I am interested in the cost of any potential training for someone who is not affiliated with any company.

    Regards,

    John Hess

  2. This has been a great resource for me as a new EMC Test Engineer, and I’m sure that I will continue to come back to it. Thank you!
