Jimmy, Here's a couple suggestions from someone who has been through what you're getting into. 1) Check out the PCB Design Conference West coming up in March in Santa Clara, CA. look at WWW.PCBDCON.COM for the relevnet information (schedule, classes, tutorial, etc) 2) Check out WWW.SMTPLUS.COM. James Blankenhorn has been in the business for years, and gives some very good courses on these subjects (novice to advanced, in-house or out) 3) Check the Copper Connection (WWW.COPPERCONN.COM). This might be exactly what you're looking for. They offer short-term and long-term training classes covering ALL of PCB design.

I'm looking to find a tranning course for PCB design & layout. It would be prefer to be in Canada, if such courses are available here... if not I'll go where ever I have to. The course should be about the following points or more: -Crosstalk -coupling reduction techniques -electrical properties of PCB's -design points -Common impedance coupling -transmission line model -earth loops -Radiation from digital circuits -basic radiating structures (snip) -And the list go on... Can you direct me some were or to someone? Thank you for your time.
