Examinations and Events at EMC 2009

Preliminary Schedule

Monday, 17 August 2009
The iNARTE Examinations Preparation Tutorial is a recommended Workshop for
all who register to take the iNARTE Certifcation Examinations on Friday, August
21, 2009   It will also be of value to those who plan to attend the Global EMC
University and who will want to later validate their new found credentials   This
year we plan to offer two different Certifcation examinations, our traditional
eight-hour examination for EMC Engineers or Technicians, and also a new four-
hour examination leading to a Certifcation for Test Laboratory Auditors   At the
Workshop we will advise attendees as to the format of both examinations, discuss
the best approach to ensure success, and provide some working examples of
typical exam questions   The last hour of the Workshop will be devoted to a trial
examination paper, where we will pose 12 typical questions   All attendees are
invited to bring reference materials if planning to take this trial examination

Friday, 21 August 2009
The iNARTE Certifcation Examinations will be held at the Austin Convention Center
from 8:00 a m  to 5:00 p m   We hope that many who attend the Global EMC
University lectures during the week will validate their knowledge and experience
by becoming an iNARTE Certifed Engineer or Technician  This is an ideal time
and place to take the open book Examination element of our Certifcation process 
The Exams for EMC Engineer and EMC Technician will run concurrently   Each
is a two-part paper, and each part is scheduled to run for four hours with an
optional one-hour break at lunchtime   The Test Laboratory Auditor examination is
a single four-hour paper and candidates can elect to attend either the morning or
afternoon sessions   Examinees may bring any reference materials and a PC to
the examination room   We do not guarantee to provide either mains power or
wireless internet access, but if it is available, it may be used

Tuesday, 18 August through Thursday, 20 August 2009
iNARTE will be at our usual Exhibition Booth each day   We invite all our members
and anyone interested in learning more about iNARTE and our Certifcation
programs to come and visit us there  You can register for any of the Friday
Examinations at our Booth, if you have not previously registered   We will also
have on display, and for purchase, books and CD’s that may be used as Study
Guides for the Examinations
