Bench Professional Certifications

Demonstrate your bench repair skills through Wireless Training Center (WTC) Certifications. WTC is a Vancouver-based, Research, Training, Technical and Engineering firm established in 2007 Canada. Since its inception, WTC has delivered services to small to midium-sized repair businesses in North America. It has developed Bench Professional Certification program in 2013 to promote the professionalism of Electronics, Circuit, Mobile Phone repair store owners, EMS and CEM technicians. This certification ensures consumers are confident in the ability of the Certified Bench Professional (CBP) Technician to perform quality work.

The Bench Professional Certification Program establishes the tests to rate the talents and proficiency of bench technicians at six levels:

Certified Bench Professional Certification Level 1 to level 3 (CBPCL3): This reflects skills and knowledge generally expected of a trained entry-level bench technician for electronics repair with about one year’s experience.

Certified Bench Professional Certification Level 4 (CBPCL4): This Mid-level Bench Professional Certification. For the hands-on practical bench test, candidates at this level must demonstrate mastery at all skill levels.

Certified Bench Professional Certification level 5 (CBPCL5): The Bench Professional Certification level 5 is the components and chip-level Advanced Certification for electronics technicians demostrating Advanced skills in circuit board analysis, soldering, de-soldering, fault-detection, troubleshooting and diagnostics.

AI Certified Bench Professional Certification Level 6 (AICBPCL6) This is the highest Certification level that WTC offered. The AI-powered Certification includes Advanced mastery in AI-powered PCB diagnostics, troubleshooting, fault-tracing and repair skills including: 

  1. AI-Integration Tools: linking AI insights with oscilloscope or infrared imaging data for intelligent diagnostics.
  2. Artificial Intelligence in Electronics Repair:
  3. AI-powered fault detection and circuit diagnosis.
  4. Using AI-based image recognition for component analysis and PCB defect identification.
  5. Implementing AI-driven predictive maintenance techniques for early fault prediction.
  6. Integrating AI tools with oscilloscope and thermal camera data for intelligent troubleshooting.
  7. Knowledge of basic electronic circuit principles and functional building blocks, and the ability to interpret and follow multi-page schematics for troubleshooting.
  8. Troubleshooting, diagnosis, and repair of Analog and Digital Circuit Boards.
  9. Soldering, desoldering, and rework skills (Surface Mount Technology and Through-Hole Components).
  10. Electronic assembly, fine-tip hand soldering, touch-up, and rework of printed circuit boards using surface mount and through-hole technologies.
  11. Color identification.
  12. Performing PCBA rework using soldering tools on fine-pitch components.
  13. Performing electronic signal measurements using a variety of test equipment and methods to troubleshoot multilayer PCBA product defects.
  14. Performing testing sequences on repaired work using detailed work instructions.
  15. Using hot air equipment for multi-lead device repairs.
  16. Finding and fixing electrical short circuits using a Thermal Infrared Imager Camera.
