Online Basic Electronics and Circuit Technology Course

This distance learning program introduces the core principles of electrical engineering and modern electronics, preparing participants to understand, evaluate, and build fundamental electrical systems. Designed for technical professionals such as mechanical fitters, toolmakers, automotive mechanics, and laboratory technicians seeking to expand their electronic skill set, it also provides an accessible entry point for beginners and a refresher for experienced workers.

The curriculum encompasses passive and active electronic components, analog circuitry, transistor switching, and signal amplification. Students explore digital technology fundamentals, including logic gates, flip-flops, counters, decoding, registers, and digital control design. Practical measurement techniques are cultivated through hands-on use of multimeters and oscilloscopes, alongside real-world experiments using dedicated hardware kits and simulation software.

Instruction combines printed and digital study booklets with the SGD-OnlineCampus, digital flashcards, and the AI learning companion KILEA. Learners gain practical proficiency using National Instruments Multisim simulation software and practical hardware experiment kits delivered directly to their home. Successful participants receive the SGD final certificate (Abschlusszeugnis) and, after passing a written exam, the SGD certificate, with optional English translations available for international career opportunities.

This program is open to all learners without specific academic prerequisites. Prospective students require reliable internet access, a current web browser, and a multimedia PC or laptop running Windows 10 to operate the simulation software. Enrollment is available online at any time throughout the year.
