    In this beginner-friendly class, students will design a simple circuit board that will be uploaded to a company who prints board (PCB) and send it to PVNet for the students to attach the electronic part using their soldering iron to create the a working circuit.


    FUN PROJECT!

    Parts included in this projects are pushbutton momentary switch, battery connector, and an LED that lights up when the switch is pressed.

    Students will learn the fundamentals of a user-friendly CAD program and safely assemble electronic components in a hands-on environment using real tools and materials. Instruction includes proper tool use and how to make clean, reliable connections.


    All materials are provided—just bring your laptop.

    No prior experience is required. This class is ideal for students interested in electronics, engineering, robotics, or hands-on technology projects who want to learn practical, real-world skills and bring their ideas to life.
