ESYS Program Overview
 Why ESYS?
 What is ESYS?
 The 16 ESYS courses
 The 8-week hybrid course schedule
Why ESYS?
 Electronics Technology courses were
originally based on 1960s technology
 Although periodically updated, the
programs were diverging from the skills
used by today’s technicians
 The Electronic Systems Technology
(ESYS) program is targeted towards the
skills needed by today’s technicians
What is ESYS?
 The ESYS (Electronic Systems
Technology) Program
• Emphasizes the use, maintenance,
troubleshooting and repair of electronic
systems
• Less concentration on individual
component and circuit analysis
• Incorporates the communication and
reporting skills needed in industry
