Electrical-Electronics Course Outline

                                     The Entire Course will be completed in 1 year.

Our Course will move between Alternating and Direct Current Electricity. There will be frequent examinations. Some of our lessons have been taken from previous lesson reviews that occurred during 1999. It is mandatory that students be in attendance on Tutoring days or have a reasonable excuse for being absent. These, along with many other courses, were taught to Los Angeles Dept. Water and Power employees by Mr. Cleophas McAlpin, Supervising Senior Electrical Tester. See my resume! Students are expected to buy their own Electronics and Electrical Books (See my copy below) A Lesson on Electricity  Another Lesson of the Past Occasionally, our regular tutoring sessions or Field Trips will refer to this page so that students can "see where they are headed".
