Happy New Year everyone!
I was just thinking about a website I came across a while back, on the website it has the ( N.E.E.T.S) manuals on it. There is I believe 1-22 or 1-24 modules and each module is pretty thick, I know the first one I printed out was like 155 pages. Incase you may never heard of n.e.e.t.s like me it is what the navy used or still uses to train people from what I made out of it.
Except, I am not sure if it is outdated or if I should be using it to learn from?
I have a book called basic electricity by a Van Valkenburgh, Nooger & Neville inc. that I have been reading on and off for a long time. But to me reading the neets modules is a bit easier to read for me. Not to mention I like how the neets is broken down into small pieces, has question along with the answer key, also has summary's at the end of each module for quick review instead of having to read or search through chapters again.
I just wanted to see, what some of you guys, that have been in electronics for a long time think about the neets modules and if that is the way to start off, then after the neets read other books?
My dad was in the airforce and said something that he remembers the airforce having something similar but once he was done with the airforce he went right into Devry. So I am not sure if he learned a great deal from the something similar to neets or if it was Devry...
I also, saw something that there is tests for the neets modules but when i looked at the website it said not available as of yet. I am not sure if they revise them every year or what not but anyone know where to get them? If you can only get them by paying for them please let me know. thanks
