Finding technicians is hard
There is a global shortage of techs,
and we have solutions:
1. Apprenticeship Program
2. Train Your Own Tech
Apprenticeship
Learn this trade by doing it. The in-shop apprenticeship from Premium Music Products offers you the finest education in instrument repair available today. Classrooms are fine, but doing is better and our apprentices graduate with will over 300 instruments completed (compare that to any other program and you'll start to see our value).
You'll learn every aspect of instrument repair. Get involved with customers and learn relationship building skills. You'll constantly triage instruments so you learn how to never leave profit on the table, you'll develop the fine motor skills needed for the most delicate repairs, and how to leverage your strength against the most stubborn sousaphone. We'll talk business on a daily basis, from parts ordering and sourcing to tool acquisition considerations. It's a full package built on our proven curriculum from Repair Masterclass.
Train Your Own Tech
In-shop, hands-on training is the best way to learn this trade. Classrooms are great, but doing is better.
There are several things to consider when deciding if you want to set up an apprenticeship program in your shop, like lost productivity of your current staff, compensation for those doing the training, tooling, curriculum to develop, appropriate projects for them to learn at their level, and so much more.
We have several articles, free of charge, so you can learn how to set up your own apprenticeship and be part of fixing this industry-wide shortage! There are also several articles on how to run a repair shop profitably.
