Outline of Appliance
Repair Tech School Training, for
Troubleshooting and Repair of Major Household Appliances
*All of
these subjects will be gone over in both 2 week and 3 week sessions.
Although, in the 2 week session, there will be brief overview
of most that are not directly pertinent to the repair and service
of major appliances. In the 2 week session, more emphasis will
be put on diagnosing and repairing major appliances, due to
the time constraint. Thus allowing you to go away with repair
and service knowledge that is the most effective for your time
spent at Appliance Repair Tech School. Whether you take the
2 week or 3 week sessions, you will walk away with a very good
foundation of knowledge about repairing appliances, that you
did not have before you arrived. In most cases, this will allow
you to go right out and start repairing and servicing appliances,
and have a great amount of confidence in what you are doing,
and also gain the confidence of the customer! Gaining the customer's
confidence, is the key to establishing a good working relationship
with them, and they will usually do your advertising for you,
by word of mouth, which beats any paid advertising, bar none!
