Advancement Prospects
Some technicians advance in terms of receiving more responsibility simply by becoming more knowledgeable and skilled in their work. Another route for technicians is to become a fluid power specialist by taking additional training and upgrading their certification. A specialist designs fluid power systems, and can instruct newer employees on the basics of these systems.
Some technicians go into sales and marketing, using their experience and knowledge to provide customers with technical assistance. Another option is to become a fluid power consultant, who works with different companies to analyze, design, or improve fluid power systems.
