Successful Troubleshooting – Taking the Next Step: Module 1

Originally streamed June 23, 2022 

More and more, we are expected to solve problems that include areas outside our expertise, that include the unfamiliar and unknown. How do we problem-solve when we are not an expert and don’t have the time or resources to become an expert?

Our training has been focused on the hard skills required for the job— understanding standards, information technology, electronics, RF, and others.  There is little focus on the soft skills—critical thinking, communication, observation, working effectively with others, and more.  The “Introduction to Successful Troubleshooting” webinar offered an approach to troubleshooting that utilizes your soft skills in addition to your hard skills and experience.

In this “Next Step: Module 1” webinar you will utilize those soft skills and techniques to take the next step and solve real-world problems encountered on the job.  Participate in solving the presented problem scenarios by choosing the next troubleshooting step to take to fix the problem.
