Mobile Technical Training
Mobile Technical Training is one of the few mobile electronic installation schools on the East Coast. Established in 2001, Syntec is approved by the Department of Education in the state of New Jersey. The school offers students the latest cutting-edge technology through full- or part-time courses. The curriculum takes 256 hours and students can choose either eight weeks full-time or 16 weeks part-time. Students are educated in classes that are run by MECP-certified instructors and that have a 12-to-1 student-teacher ratio. Syntec is located in an 8,000-square-foot building (fully air-conditioned) with separate classroom, workshop, and a custom-built product installation stand. There is also a 3,000-square-foot installation bay where students obtain hands-on installation experience. Students at Mobile Technical Training are taught basic math equations, industry terminology, shop safety, basic and advanced sound system design, automotive security systems, navigation systems and state-of-the-art customizing, blending textbook knowledge and hands-on experience to provide a superior level of education and installation know-how. A graduate of Mobile Technical Training will have several career options: installer, sales representative, future shop owner or certified shop owner. He or she will have completed and successfully passed the Mobile Electronic Certified Professional examination. As a certified installer, you can command a higher-entry level position in this field.
