What does a quality control technician do?

There are no formal education requirements to become a quality control technician, though completing a quality control certificate or degree program at a community college or vocational school that is accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) may make you more competitive on the job market. These programs teach you the basic skills needed to perform your duties in this position. For those without a degree, gain work experience in the manufacturing industry by acquiring an entry-level position and learn how a product is manufactured from start to finish.
