Challenge yourself!  See if you can build all 30 experiments and make them work!  

All the parts are provided and diagrams, instructions and videos.

When you order this lab, you will receive all electronic parts for experiments, a printed lab manual with all the lessons and experiments and a link to view all online video presentations where an electronics instructor takes you through of each of the lessons and experiments. Upon completion of this lab, you will receive a signed Career Certificate of Electronics Training for Lab 1.  

With this lab, you will not only learn electronics, you will have a way of proving you have. No longer will prospective employers or customers just have to take your word for it.

The purpose of this lab is to teach you the basics of electronics technology. It is ideal for the person at home or at work.

The lab starts out with four lessons of information to give a foundation to begin the journey. Then, with 30 electronics experiments, you learn how to use the eleven electronic components which are the building blocks for electronic circuits. This hands-on experience will give an individual valuable skills for them to use in today’s world of technology.

When you order the Mr Circuit Basic Electronics Lab 1, part number  #1101-LAB, each lab comes with a lab box with all the parts, a link to view the online video lesson presentations, and a printed lab manual and Study Guide.

Upon completion of this lab, you will be able to:

• Draw an atom and label each element.
