Changing careers isn’t always easy, but Muhammad’s journey proves that passion and focused training can transform unexpected turns into opportunity. Once a dentist and cardiac sonographer, Muhammad is now training at Delmi Training Institute to become a electronic security technician. His shift from healthcare to electronic security shows that with dedication, anyone can tackle new challenges, master unfamiliar skills, and carve out a fulfilling path in a completely different field.
A Medical Background Sparks a New Path
Muhammad’s career began in healthcare, where precision and attention to detail were critical. As a dentist, he worked with delicate tools and focused on patient care. Later, he shifted to cardiac sonography, mastering heart diagnostics and medical technology. Over time, though, the stress of healthcare pushed him to seek a fresh challenge.
“I wanted something new—a field where I could still solve problems but in a different way,” he says.
A friend in the security industry suggested electronic security. Intrigued by the mix of technical and practical problem-solving, Muhammad enrolled at Delmi Training Institute to train as a CCTV Surveillance Technician and Access Control Technician.
Bridging Medicine and Security
At first glance, healthcare and security seem unrelated. But Muhammad saw similarities. “In medicine, you diagnose issues and fix them step by step. Security systems work the same way—you find weaknesses, design solutions, and make them work flawlessly.”
His medical experience gave him an edge. Familiar with technical tools and safety protocols, he quickly learned to configure IP cameras for CCTV networks and program biometric scanners for access control systems. What surprised him most was how much he enjoyed the hands-on work. “Setting up fingerprint readers or adjusting camera angles felt like solving a puzzle,” he says. “When the system finally communicates perfectly? That’s the best moment.”
Training at Delmi: Building Confidence
Muhammad credits his success to the hands-on training at Delmi Training Institute. Courses like DTIL 201 (CCTV Surveillance Technician) covered IP camera installation, troubleshooting, and network integration. Meanwhile, DTIL 402 (Access Control Technician) taught him to design systems with biometrics, door schedules, and user permissions.
“The instructors were always there to help—whether fixing a camera feed or setting up access levels,” he says. Team projects with classmates also reminded him of healthcare teamwork, proving that collaboration matters in every field.
One of his proudest achievements? Building a full access control system from scratch. “Assigning permissions for different users felt like creating safety protocols in a hospital—just digital!”
Future Goals: Safer Spaces, Smarter Tech
“You’re not just installing devices—you’re shaping how people move through spaces securely,” he explains. He plans to design custom security solutions for businesses, combining his problem-solving skills with Delmi’s training.
“Every project teaches me something new. That’s what keeps this field exciting.”
Advice for Career Changers: “Start Small, Think Big”
To others considering a career shift, Muhammad says: “Your past skills aren’t limits—they’re tools. Whether you’re from healthcare, education, or any field, you can adapt. Stay curious, and don’t fear starting over.”
He also emphasizes the value of hands-on learning. “Find a program like Delmi’s that lets you practice real-world skills.”
Final Takeaway: Reinvention is Possible
Muhammad’s journey from dental clinics to security systems reminds us that careers aren’t straight lines. They’re shaped by curiosity, training, and grit. As electronic security grows, his story inspires others to explore paths they never imagined.
