GE X/i (series) COURSE TRAINING

Course:
GE X/i system course is designed for CT service engineers.  Course covers functional checks, calibration procedures, image performance, trouble shooting techniques, and routine maintenance as prescribed by the original manufacture.  The course is conducted with an experienced instructor, a staged and fully functional X/i CT, the original manufacturer’s documentation and a criterion reference manual.

Qualifications for Admission:
Students should have prior CT service experience, preferably with GE CT.  They should have a minimum of a two- year degree in electronics or equivalent experience. Strong microprocessor and UNIX O/S skills are an advantage.
