☆ ☆ Information on a Career in Instrumentation ☆ ☆ 

I’m about to start my program this fall and your channel has been a great resource. I’m excited to learn and implement my education!

Hi Greg! I'm from Brazil and I've been working with industrial instrumentation and process control for 35 years. Your videos are very cool. Success for you!

I about to start my electrical technology program this January. I’m excited

well explained bro

ICE&A

Video request: overview of differences between similar fields? I&C tech, vs electrician (maybe also HVAC techs?) Do they work in the same facilities/share any duties? How easy would it be if you wanted to switch from one to the other? Does I&C have licensing/is it necessary in order to progress? Does I&C experience count towards electrical experience if I wanted to pursue journeyman electrician licensing? Thanks man, just getting into the field via an I&C certificate program and starting to look at jobs, love your videos

Hey Greg, I was looking into my local community college’s Engineering Technology program, and they recommend doing an internship while in the program. The college career center tries to help students find local jobs, but they still need to apply on their own. Was this your experience too? Or were you able to get a direct hire through your professor?

Hey Greg, I'm studying electrical engineering technology and I was offered two summer jobs. One is an electronics assembler putting together high voltage amplifiers and power supplies using schematics, blueprints, and basic soldering. The other is a calibration technician calibrating piezoelectric sensors using meters, pressure pumps, dead weight testers, shakers and test chambers. Which would you say is more relevant experience if I hope to be an instrument/automation tech after school?

hello greg, new subscriber here, this might sound dumb but are most instrumentation technician jobs are in a campsite?

Is there anyway. I can talk with someone who started out as Industrial maintenance technician I have that degree & decided to go back for instrumentation electrical. They didn’t really teach us about AC theory or DC theory in Industrial maintenance but in I&E they are teaching me allot of topics about that. I just think I need to get my foot into the door asap I’m 24 thinking I went to school for the wrong thing. MOST people are telling me just get the I&E degree & start out as that.

Is it easier to find a job if you're willing to travel? Also, do you do plc programming?

I just had an interview for a FST position and I told the interviewer I have a solid knowledge on PLC’s even though I have a good fundamental knowledge or fundamental knowledge on PLC ladder logic. Will that be ok or good for the Instrumentation Tech position?
