Educator

Marvin started part-time teaching apprentices in the 1980’s at George Brown College under the direction
of the Joint Apprenticeship Council. Always lending a hand up and giving back to the industry he has continuously trained other electricians to become instructors on their own. He believes that every electrician can learn to be a totally independent learner – to be his or her own tutor and pay that knowledge forward as a licensed journeyperson. So committed to the self tutor electrician, Marvin developed the Electrical Study Buddy Series®. This four volume set demonstrates the “how to” succeed at exam writing through learning processes such as The Skip-It System™ and The Path Of Least Resistance™ can be found in the National Library of Canada.

Rewards

“The most rewarding component of teaching electricians occurs when the student or apprentice builds self-esteem as a result of understanding the process, the method, the system of choosing the correct answer choice – this knowledge in the Electrical Study Buddy Series is not just for the “Red Seal” or Master License; it’s for every exam an electrician is ever going to write for employment such as for the Power Authority, Safety Authority, Transit Authority, Inspection Department, and Hydro Careers.” Since publication, thousands of electricians have purchased Marvin Rosenberg’s pre-exam study material and taken courses offered by Marvin Rosenberg and his associates resulting in proud electricians achieving self esteem and strong identities.
