George Loeppky recently started working at Magna International as a software developer. Prior to that, he worked at Fibernetics, for 7 years, initially as a Software Developer and eventually as a Manager and then Director of Software Development.
“I did use the Resource Center Discussion Forums and contacted the Support Center with questions about my exams. The exam administrator was excellent.”
“The DC and AC motor modules and topics relating to power controllers and charging were my favorite parts of the program. This was the information that I was looking for. While I have not applied my knowledge at work, eventually I would like to convert vehicles to electric and then service them.”

‘The simulation software and labs throughout the modules were amazing! I'm a hands-on person, it was a great learning experience especially since you don't have to travel to be at the lab.

Some of the equipment at my current job requires knowledge in basic electricity and that's where I can expect to apply what I have learned.’
