Hi John, I don't know what you or others think but there is much reduced electronics knowledge required these days with us being prevented at working down to component level. I picked a course for my trainee that had general engineering principles of course but had extra bits in like health and safety at work, project management, system processes, stuff like that. Like I mentioned it didn't cut the mustard when she had to move to medical engineering where they too will not work down to component level anymore. Getting the clinical knowledge and knowledge of water treatment components is more useful these days with an underpinning technical knowledge.
