The Wiring Harness Manufacturer’s Association (WHMA)/IPC will offer a three-day, in-person Wire Harness Assembly for Operators (WHO) training course at M-EXPO Wire Processing Technology Expo (M-EXPO), September 27-29, 2022.
The WHO course introduces operators to the key tools, materials, and processes required to consistently produce quality wire harness assemblies. This course is designed to encompass the entire wire harness assembly process, including a customizable selection of modules to address the current needs and future goals of operators and organizations. The course’s seven mandatory modules will be covered in this training, enabling participants to earn a qualified IPC wire harness assembly operator certificate.
Modules include introduction to wire harness assembly; safety; engineering documentation; materials and components; tools and equipment; wire preparation and processing; and inspection and training.
“IPC learning specialists teamed up with industry experts to provide the knowledge and skills that every operator needs to build quality wires and cable harnesses,” said Carlos Plaza, IPC senior director of education. “We are pleased to be able to offer on-site WHO training at M-EXPO at a discounted price.”
The cost for the three day-course at M-EXPO is $25 for IPC/WHMA members and $40 for nonmembers. The WHO training course will be taught in Spanish. Additional information on the WHO training course including description and course content can be found at https://training.ipc.org/product/electronics-assembly-operators.
