Witham, Essex, UK – Advanced Rework Technology Ltd (A.R.T.), the leading independent provider of IPC-certified & bespoke training services for the electronics assembly industry, has bolstered its electronics manufacturing training expertise with new hire, Trevor Jones, an industry veteran and Certified IPC Trainer.
