This is just one of
many full-page advertisements in the December 1950 issue of Mechanix
Illustrated magazine for electronics service schools. There was also
Coyne Electrical & Television-Radio School, De Forests' Training (yes,
THAT
de Forest),
deVry Institute, and a couple others. Electronics for home and industry was
big business following World War II, both from the enormous amount of new
knowledge gained in components, circuits, and manufacturing, and from the
near total lack of consumer products being turned out by manufacturers while
wartime rules mandated that all available resources be dedicated to the effort.
In fact, immediately after the end of the war, aircraft, electronics,
automobile, and many other industries went into a major downturn as government
contracts were pulled overnight, leaving companies high and dry with no orders
and factory floors which had been reconfigured to meet government demands. Of
course those companies and employees enjoyed handsome profits and all the work
they could handle for half a decade, so they couldn't complain too much. Once
production ramped up again, men trained in the operation and maintenance of
electronics were in high demand.
