Abstract: The profession as an electrical engineer has undergone many changes in the last 20 years. Many of the design jobs have been outsourced, downsized or eliminated. While there is an oversupply of one type of engineer, there is a significant shortage of another type of engineer. Jobs in New York area represent the pulses of the engineering profession. Defense contractors have moved out of the area but microwave engineers are still in demand. Java and C# .NET programmers are in acute shortages. To take a course in Java or C#, the cost is $1,200 at a two-year college or $2,500 at a professional training organization. Since 1993, IEEE North Jersey Section provided 25 low-cost courses to retrain a total 273 engineers/professionals mostly by this author. The bottom line: successfully retrained engineers to work as Java Programmer, C# Programmer, Project Manager or related title. IEEE North Jersey Section, a volunteer organization, also benefited from the financial gains running these courses. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
