How Can I Prepare?
There are presently two courses available from the NJATC to help individuals prepare for this certification process. The NJATC Instrumentation – Module 1, Fundamentals of Instrumentation, and Module 2, Fundamentals of Control, are are both excellent courses to successfully prepare for the examination process.

In the Module 1 Course, topics such as Definitions, Instrument Process Applications, Symbols and Identifiers that are specific to the instrument world, Standard and "Smart" Calibration, Flow, Level, Pressure and Temperature Properties, Pneumatic Properties, Valve and Valve Positioner Operation and Maintenance, Instrument Maintenance, and Pneumatic Tubing and Documentation are all covered in detail. The Module 1 course includes classroom theory as well as providing the skills needed to perform hands on calibrations. The Module 1 course through the NJATC, when coupled with the knowledge and skills attained through the IBEW/NECA Inside Apprenticeship Program, will provide sufficient training for individuals attempting to certify as Level 1 Technicians.
