About The Course

In this course, students will learn how to use Electronics Components and Microcontrollers to build
working circuits and prototypes. They will also learn how to write codes that adds intelligence / make their circuits smart as well as use electronic tools and electronics design softwares. This course will be divided into level 1 and level 2. They will learn from professional Electronics, Instrumentation and Computer Engineers. Courses will be 100% Hands-On.
