What You’ll Walk Away With
The Authority to Train and Certify Others
Your official IPC/WHMA-A-620 CIT certification authorizes you to train and certify others to the PC/WHMA-A-620 CIS level — giving you and your organization a recognized instructional credential backed by IPC.
Your Facility's Own Certification Capability
Stop coordinating with outside providers every time a technician or inspector needs to be certified or recertified. CIT gives your organization the internal authority to run its own IPC/WHMA-A-620 certification program on your own schedule.
A Stronger Position in Quality and Training Leadership
CIT certification is the documented qualification that quality managers, training coordinators, and technical leads use to demonstrate instructional authority — and that high-reliability manufacturers increasingly require from their internal training staff.
Two Years Before Recertification Is Even a Concern
Your CIT certification is valid for two years. When recertification comes around, ElectroSpec makes it straightforward — same flexible process, no classroom required, and no need to start over from scratch, whether you originally certified with us or not.
Why Professionals Choose ElectroSpec
01
Clear Path to Certification
You'll know exactly where you stand before you sit for either component of the CIT exam. ElectroSpec's preparation system is built around the actual CIT exam structure, both open-book and closed-book, so instead of guessing whether you're ready, you'll have the practice results to confirm it.
02
Flexible Preparation Without Disrupting Responsibilities
Study before your shift, after hours, or on weekends — and schedule your exam components on the dates and times that work around your quality and training calendar. No consecutive days off, no scheduling conflicts, no disruption to your team.
03
Built for the CIT Exam, Not a Generic Prep Course
Every concept in ElectroSpec's preparation system connects directly to what CIT candidates are tested on — wire harness fabrication criteria, cable assembly workmanship, crimping and splicing acceptability, connector requirements, and the instructional knowledge required to train and certify others. Practical depth, not surface review.
04
Real Answers When You're Stuck
When a concept isn't clicking, you get direct access to a practicing engineer and Master IPC Trainer with graduate-level credentials and real-world high-reliability manufacturing experience — not a help desk script from a customer service rep. Questions typically answered within one business day.
What's Inside Each Track
Every track includes the official IPC CIT exam and a free retake per exam component. Here's exactly what's in each.
Included in Every Track
Official IPC CIT Exam — Open-Book & Closed-Book Components
The CIT exam consists of two components — an open-book exam of approximately 75 multiple-choice questions covering the full IPC/WHMA-A-620 standard, and a closed-book exam of approximately 25 questions. Both are remotely proctored and can be scheduled across multiple days at your convenience.
Free Exam Retake For Each Component
If you don't pass the open-book and closed-book exams on your first attempt, one free retake of each is included. Note that IPC requires a minimum 14-day waiting period before retesting — plan your preparation accordingly and use the practice questions to confirm you're ready before scheduling.
Flexible Remote Exam Scheduling
Any date, any time, any time zone — with as little as one business day's notice. Schedule each component separately if needed.
Instructor Email Support
Direct line to a practicing engineer with graduate-level credentials and real-world high-reliability manufacturing experience. Real answers, not a help desk script. Typically within one business day.
Included in Exam + Preparation Track
6+ Hour On-Demand Exam Prep Course
A focused, self-paced course covering wire harness fabrication criteria, cable assembly workmanship, crimping and splicing acceptability, soldering requirements, connector installation, product classifications, and the instructional knowledge required to train and certify others. Pause, rewind, and rewatch any lesson during your 180-day access window.
Independently developed by ElectroSpec — not IPC-authorized training or official IPC curriculum.
300+ Practice Questions
ElectroSpec-developed questions designed to expose your knowledge gaps before they show up on the real open- & closed-book exam components. Know you're ready before you schedule.
24/7 AI Tutor
A focused AI available any hour to explain concepts, answer questions, and reinforce your understanding — including the night before your exam.

Choose Your Certification Track
The prices are exactly the same whether you're getting certified for the first time or recertifying.
Do you already have the IPC/WHMA-A-620 standard?
The open-book component of the CIT exam requires the IPC/WHMA-A-620 standard. Many professionals already have access through their employer or a previous certification. If that's you, there's nothing additional to purchase. If you don't have the standard, you can add the current English revision to your order at checkout for $360, which includes all taxes, fees, and shipping. This is sold below IPC's listed non-member price of $382. Contact us before purchasing if you need a non-English version, require international shipping, or have questions about your employer's existing copy.
Free exam retake included in all tracks · Invoice available for employer reimbursement · Questions? We typically respond within one business day.
