Tim’s Takeaways: The Art of Technical Instruction
04/04/2024 | Tim Haag -- Column: Tim's TakeawaysWhat does it take to become a PCB design instructor and be successful? This question is especially relevant in the rapidly changing landscape of printed circuit board design and layout. Our industry, like many others, is dealing with a lot of change. Turnover is chief among those changes as newcomers step into the positions left open by those retiring. There is the constant escalation of technology that triggers continual enhancements of standards and processes that designers must keep up with. It is evident that our industry needs good technical instructors to carry this load.
One World, One Industry: Sustainability Challenges—A Collaborative Approach
04/04/2024 | John Mitchell -- Column: One World, One IndustryMy personal belief is that changes to the electronics industry due to sustainability will be the most far-reaching in the industry’s history.

We need to accelerate work that promotes sustainability and aims to achieve the ambitious sustainability goals set before us. The “we” includes all of us as individuals, but also as valued members of the global electronics manufacturing community. This diverse community can together address our greatest sustainability challenges.
