Public curriculum specification

Avionics & Electrical Assembly

Wire-harness assemblers, avionics technicians, electronics assemblers and quality personnel

Organize harness construction, connector assembly, crimping, bonding, soldering, ESD and configuration control into a disciplined electrical-assembly curriculum.

Learning outcomes

What the program is structured to develop.

  • Interpret harness drawings, wire lists and connector information.
  • Understand controlled crimping, pinning and routing practices.
  • Apply bonding and ESD-control concepts.
  • Maintain configuration, tooling and inspection evidence.

Open topic

Metrology & Quality · Foundational

Metrology: Calipers, Micrometers and Indicators

Develop correct measurement habits with common precision instruments and understand resolution, repeatability, calibration and measurement technique.

Open topic

Metrology & Quality · Intermediate

First Article Inspection (FAI)

Understand the purpose of first article inspection as a structured verification that manufacturing planning and the produced article satisfy defined engineering requirements.

Open topic

Assessment framework

Assessment is defined by the active program.

  • Technical knowledge assessment
  • Drawing/pinout interpretation
  • Defect-recognition exercises
  • Practical evidence only where the employer defines applicable workmanship criteria

Possible evidence

Evidence examples for governed delivery.

  • Crimp/connector observation
  • Tool-control verification
  • Harness inspection record
  • Knowledge assessment

Choose the delivery relationship

Individual access or a scoped company program.

Current individual learning uses Professional Learning Access. Companies can scope role, equipment and workplace-evidence requirements separately.
