Systems Setup Specialists

High School

Take any mechanics and electronics classes that focus on understanding how complex machinery works. These classes will provide the basics of reading flow charts and schematic drawings and understanding technical documents. The ability to read these documents efficiently and accurately is a prerequisite for computer setup work. Also take computer classes, especially those that explain the basic functioning of computer technology. English and speech classes will also help build communication skills, which is another important quality because setup specialists often work closely with many different people. Take business classes to become familiar with practices of the business world.
