MANCHESTER, NH -- Soldering training company EPTAC Corp. and OPS A La Carte will team to offer training and IPC certification in electronics manufacturing in the Silicon Valley.

OPS is a reliability engineering services company based in Santa Clara, CA. Under the agreement, EPTAC will offer a full schedule of IPC Certification classes in 2012 at Ops' facility, including IPC-A-600, IPC-A-610, IPC-WHMA-620, IPC-7711/7721 and J-STD-001.

EPTAC in turn will promote OPS' services to its customers in the US and Canada.

“Ops A La Carte is excited about its new partnership with EPTAC,” said Mike Silverman, managing partner. “There is a strong synergy between our reliability services and reliability training classes and EPTAC’s IPC training classes.”

“This partnership makes perfect sense as our services are extremely complimentary," said Brian Downes, EPTAC director of business development. “Although we work with many of the same customers, we often connect with different personnel within a customer organization. OPS A La Carte provides EPTAC with an ideal location to deliver its electronics training and IPC certification classes to the Silicon Valley region."
