How Do I Become An Electronic Security Engineer?

May 19, 2015There's not a degree or certification that would let you jump directly into electronic security engineering.
The most common way tends to be getting a position as a field tech and then working your way up into engineering.
What are you doing right now?
Assuming you are a tech, I would do a combination of:
- Volunteering / campaigning for more responsibility on harder projects
- Studying more (I see you are in the IP networking course - great!), maybe getting an IT cert (Network+, CCNA, etc.) and making sure you know the major lines you work with (taking the relevant manufacturer training, etc.).

May 19, 2015Thank you John.
Then I am on the right road as I am presently studying for my CCENT, taking your course and logging heavy hours as a 4th year Lead technician.
I also have some manufacturing courses with my company coming up.
