Earn an Accredited Diploma

Students graduate with a Nationally Accredited Diploma in Electronics may continue their education with CIE and receive full academic and tuition credit that can be applied towards CIE's more advanced A.A.S. Degree Program program. In fact, this course contains 53 credit hours towards CIE's accredited Associate Degree in Electronics Engineering Technology.

CET Exam Preparation

Electronics Technology with Digital and Microprocessor Lab also includes a study guide on how to prepare for the Associate-Level Certified Electronics Technician (CET) exam.

This test is administered by the International Society of Certified Electronics Technicians and has over 46,000 certified technicians across the globe! Certification enables employers to separate knowledgeable job applicants from those with less training and skills.
CIE has an open enrollment policy and you can start this program at anytime. One of the advantages of enrolling with CIE is that you can study at your own pace. We can accommodate almost any arrangement that suits you best and with our generous time allotment of 42 months for Course 14B you can be assured to have enough time to complete your program.

Student Textbook Responsibilities

Students are responsible for purchasing a limited number of textbooks for this course that are not included in tuition. Please call a Guidance Counselor at (800) 243-6446 if you have any questions.

Textbook Buyback Program

Some lesson modules in this course include textbooks that would qualify for our Textbook Buyback Program.

CIE’s Textbook Buyback Program enables you to sell your textbooks back to CIE for tuition credit once you are finished with your learning module. They must be in a like-new appearance with no marks, tears or folds.

You are under no obligation to use this service but if you don’t want to keep your textbooks for reference we’ll be happy to buy them back and give you tuition credit. You can start this program at any time during your course.
