It hurts to see people leaving negative review not because of the content of the course, but because of my accent.

Yes, I am Indian, and yes I have a thick accent, I request you to please NOT join this course if you have problem understanding my speaking. Though fluent and free of any grammar errors, just because of negative reviews left by people, this course is getting less ratings (which is otherwise a bestseller course).

I have a humble request : Please go through all sample videos before buying this course, shoot out as many questions as you want and if you're still not satisfied, please take your full refund than posting negative thoughts.

"I believe everyone can learn and excel in technologies with right tools and proper guidance. Hence I make these courses and 50% of all my courses is available for free preview, watch them, if you feel right, enroll. I hope you'd like this transparency. "

"What is there to loose if you enroll in this bestseller course? You have a 30 day Full Money Back Guarantee, enroll now and start learning PCBs"

I believe that anyone can learn and excel in printed circuit board design, with a willingness to learn and proper guidance. And hence I've created this course with my 10+ years of experience in electronics design, especially for beginners in electronics design to learn about PCB Design. If you're a beginner looking to learn PCB design, you might wanna enroll now.

In Electronics Designing, creating PCBs is one of the most fundamental parts, not only it's fun and exciting but also it's super easy if you have the right tools and instructions.

You'll design your first PCB within 20 minutes of enrolling to the course

If electronics is your passion, read out.

  • Are you an electronics hobbyist?

  • Are you a student studying electronics for the first time?

  • Are you crazy to know about all those open-source schematics on the internet and wonder how these are designed?

Take the Free Preview (test drive the course even before enrolling)

Take the free preview before enrolling the course, 30% of the course is free for you. Decide if its good for you or not even before enrolling. See and decide if you can understand and cope up with the content and the presenter of the course. I've spent hundreds of hours in creating this course and hence want to help maximum students with it. For many of the learners, even this 30% of the content is all they were looking to learn.

PCB Design with Eagle

This course is about learning circuit design with Autodesk Eagle, which is the most popular design tool used by millions of people around the world. If you've ever come across any open-source hardware like Arduino, it's designed with eagle, if you've seen those crazy nice modules and kits developed by Sparkfun, they're designed with an eagle. Eagle has become de-facto language of the PCB design in the open-source world and thereby in the industry.

Moreover, eagle is free for small project size and for the professionals who are serious about using eagle for job/business, the premium packages of eagle are also the cheapest among all other tools compared to the features it offers

This course deals with eagle from a complete newbie's point of view. I am assuming that you've never created any PCB on a computer before, or not created PCB at all :), you're still welcome to join this course and see for yourself.

This is a super simple and easy to follow the course for designing printed circuit boards, and it is specially designed for them who have never designed PCB's before or not used eagle PCB designing tool. We do not cover any advanced complex techniques in this course

You'll design your first PCB within 20 minutes of enrolling to the course

With more than 10 years of experience in teaching circuit design to thousands of students from ages 10 to 60, you can count on me that I know my subject well. Join now to start designing PCB's for your hobby project or for your next tech-startup

Happy Learning.

What this course will NOT do for you?

  • Please be advised that this is a complete beginners course to start creating PCB's, single-sided as well as double-sided

  • This course is not suitable for existing designers or those who already know PCB design and want to learn advanced techniques

  • This course does not include any tutorial of EMI / EMC considerations

  • This course does not include 4 layer or multi-layer PCB Design

Here's what Students who enrolled are saying

"Clear, direct and to the point"

"Great job. This course is perfect for beginners and was well worth the money. The informative powerpoints were a bonus too."

"This course teaches you how to design PCBs well enough (schematics & board files) to send to a manufacturer."

"Thanks, Amit, 9/10"

"I am a beginner and I am completely satisfied with the course."

"Just great. I love it - easy to follow, Thank you very much for the nice work. "

"Gives a quick start to get designing PCB's with Eagle- just what I wanted."

Major Goal of this course is your improved self-confidence about PCB design and having fun time designing boards, improved career opportunities and academic benefits are just side effects :)

Happy Learning.
