Electromechanical Technician Program Highlights
The Electromechanical Technician Certificate program provides flexible, skills-based training in basic electronics and electromechanical systems. It has been developed for adult learners pursuing basic technician level training through independent study, specifically students who cannot attend college full-time because of work or family commitments.
Launched in 1999, our Electromechanical Technician training program offers the full accreditation of one of the largest public community colleges in Canada.
George Brown College is a well established, widely recognized higher educational institution. At GBC students can earn diplomas, post-graduate certificates, industry accreditations, apprenticeships and four year bachelor degrees.
George Brown College has ten program partnership agreements with U.S. colleges and universities. These partnerships enable us to offer these certificate programs to students in their local communities through these fully accredited colleges and universities.
The Electromechanical program aims to help graduates prepare for career opportunities in a variety of positions in the field of industrial manufacturing including the installation and maintenance of industrial electronic equipment. This program can help you acquire the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in the growing field of high tech manufacturing.
We regularly hear back from many of our graduates and love to share their stories of career growth with you. Take a moment to read these real stories of GBC Electromechanical graduates as they describe how their training has impacted their jobs, career paths and lives.

One of the most important pieces of our program, that is critical to students success, is our technical, tutorial and administrative support. Our approach is to hire really great people, train them on our programs and then make them really easily accessible by our students.
Our students receive tutorial, technical and administrative support from Support Consultants in our Student Support Center. The Support Center is open for extended hours on Monday to Friday, 9 am - 10 pm in the evening and on Saturday & Sunday from 9 am - 5 pm (EST).
Our Support Consultants are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful and provide personalized technical and tutorial support by phone or by email. Whichever method works best for our students, works for us and we are always here to help.
We provide dedicated online discussion forums, where students can direct questions to our online tutor, review tutorials on previously discussed or difficult topics and interact with other students to seek assistance or simply exchange ideas or opinions about being a student in the program.
This easy-to-use, computer-based, self-paced program is designed to put you in charge of your technical training. The interactive curriculum, simulation software, student support, and online exams provide a completely flexible learning framework that allows you to learn, study, practice and complete the program on your terms.
The flexible computer-based-training format is designed to fit into your schedule, not ours, so you can work at your own pace to complete the program. We provide you with curriculum and the support but leave the scheduling of studying and exams up to you. Of course, the more time that you put into your studies each week, the faster you finish.
The curriculum contains 24 modules of theory and lab projects. Each module contains text, animations, mini audio lectures, illustrations, review questions, 450 pre-built lab projects and practice exams that provides a complete introduction to electronics and electromechanical systems.
CircuitLogix is a powerful and easy to use 2D and 3D simulator. The 3DLab simulation software is intended to provide the fundamentals of electronics using "real-world" components. While the CircuitLogix simulator contains over 10,000 devices and circuits and is capable of performing analog, digital, and mixed-mode simulation.
Online exams are taken at the end of each module to evaluate a student’s mastery of the program material. Each module exam is timed at 90 minutes, and comprised of 30 multiple choice or short answer questions. They are submitted electronically for grading and results are returned to the student right away.
