I'm taking Electronics Engineering Technician at Saint Lawrence College
this fall so I can pursue a similar career. It's a 2 year program, and it seems to be available at most college's. The starting salary for a technician is supposed to be about $35,000 CDN. The technologist level (3 year program) is about $45,000 CDN starting. If you wanted to go university level it's 4 years plus and the salary is much higher, but the math level is crazy.

Anyway, i got my ticket when i was 16 i think or maybe younger... My question is i am getting older and still have nothing but a H.S diploma and dead-end jobs to show for... so, obviously i would like to continue my education. I realize now that my only true love was fixing and tinkering with my old radio equipment. I would like to know if someone could tell me what career path i should take that will qualify me and give me the experience i need in working with electronic equipment... preferably Wireless communications, RF circuts ... you know all the skills used to diagnose and repair such things as amateur transievers etc. I was licensed in NJ, but recently moved to Florida's Space Coast (Melbourne) where i am happy to see that ham radio is alive and thriving. I assume taking courses in electronic engineering would be in the right direction, but i am not sure exactly what i should do. If anyone could please give me some advice on what type of schooling i should look for, and if possible what schools are good for what i am looking for it would be greatly aprreciated. Thank you and i look forward to getting back on the air ASAP. |
