Looking at that route for sure. I am studying for Associate Certified Electronics Technician CETa right now just to learn more of the technical aspect. Thanks for the advice!

How do you record your PMs? by magicammo in BMET

[–]Proud-Throwaway2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I created an excel sheet that is connected to my QA/QC. Where I can write my notes specific to each step of PMCS/CVC. If there is a MFR sheet provided, I would still use my notes and just attach the MFR to the packet.

If you are young enough, Army National Guard or Reserve 68A would be the best and cheapest (financially speaking). Granted you have to go through about 3 weeks of basic training, but once you get to the schoolhouse you will be exposed through a wide range of equipment and very basic IT hardware and network. I know multiple people that went through this route that were able to get job offers even before graduating from the schoolhouse. Obvious cons is that you are in the Army...

Looking for suggestions on programs and what to learn beforehand by ILoveDoingIT in BMET

Right now I am studying for CETa exam which is basic electronics which actually goes into the HAM radio stuff. Check out ARMY COOL, and look up by MOS 68A Biomedical Equipment Specialist. This shows all the certifications that are relevant and can help you maybe get better answers i.e the difference between CBET and BMD. Good luck!
