@Nathan

but i dont thank that one class would get him the proper ed for the alarm tech

I meant if would be helpful, he would also have to take other classes.

Definitely not qualified to be a technician! But possibly qualified to be an engineer someday! I know plenty of engineers around my area and some of them design sprinkler suppression and design fire alarm systems for certain projects. I remember shadowing my senior year at an engineering firm and I told the one engineer working in the electrical field that I’m interested in electrical systems, fire alarms and stuff like that. Not even kidding, less than 30 seconds later another guy comes to his cubicle and says “Hey we’re going to the meeting room to have a conference call with a project manager about their fire alarm system that’s being installed.” The engineer I was talking to was like “Well, there you go… you can go sit in on that meeting if you want.” :lol:

I’m also thinking about becoming an engineer. I’m thinking about software engineering, but I do have a major interest in electrical and fire systems as well, so I might have to consider electrical engineering.
