Hardware
Modern semiconductor fabrication is the most complex manufacturing process in history. It involves a vast array of sophisticated and esoteric technologies that evolve at a very rapid pace, with new technology nodes being developed every 18 months. In the face of such rapidly developing technology, professional development should be required at regular intervals throughout the career of semiconductor industry professionals to ensure that these employees are kept abreast of the latest technical developments. Companies that wish to stay abreast of industry developments must provide their semiconductor engineers, technicians and scientists access to targeted and structured semiconductor seminars and other professional development opportunities
