Recognised PCB design qualifications?

KJ

Hi, all.

First, a very brief background: I've been working in the Electronics Engineering industry for over 20 years. I have a strong background in PCB manufacture and testing, and have a BSc in Engineering from the OU.

I'd like to apply for PCB design roles, but my PCB design history isn't strong enough to be able to apply for any of the roles I've seen so far. 

I've designed and produced a handful of PCBs for prototypes and small batch runs over the years; a few analogue and very low noise amps, but that's about it.

Are there any professional courses specifically for PCB design that I can take, which would be recognised by potential employers? I'm not looking to take another Degree - one was enough! But if you know of any industry recognised courses, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

    Cheers. I forgot about the IPC. I used to be a J-STD001 CIT. expensive certification, which my company paid for! I wonder if CID would be worth footing the bill for, in terms of employability for design roles.
