We've had techs with all kinds of backgrounds take our courses, some with decades of experience. They all report the same thing: they knew they needed some more training in electricity, electronics, and troubleshooting using schematics, but they really didn't know what they didn't know until they took Core Appliance Repair Training!

That's because we focus on teaching the primary skill that most techs are lacking today, yet makes a huge difference in your earnings: effective troubleshooting using schematics and electrical testing.

"The Core Appliance Repair Training course has helped a great deal. I was really struggling in the first part of the year with my repairs and didn't know if I was going to stay in business! But now I'm more prepared for my jobs and I'm taking the time to be more analytical. The cash is flowing now!" John Frary, J T Appliance Service, Los Alamos, NM

The courses are all on demand and self-paced, so you can fit your studies into a normal working schedule. The ideal schedule involves spending an hour or so a day, several days a week, working through the course.

However, the flexibility of the online format means you can adapt the routine to fit your needs!

This course is divided up into modules and units. Modules cover a particular topic, such as Basic Electricity. Units are the individual lessons in a module.

1. You go through the lessons in each course in sequential order.
2. Each lesson has an automatically-graded quiz at the end, with two attempts allowed to get the highest grade they can.
3. There are also Module Exams for review, and a Midterm and Final which have open-answer questions that we personally grade. These are very powerful tools for assessing comprehension of the material! (Note: the number and type of exams varies with each course.)
4. You can set your own goals for your quiz and exam scores, or you can aim for MST Certification.

5. Professional Service (Customer relations and other soft skills)
6. Business Management (includes the material in Professional Service, plus Business-related lessons appropriate for a self-employed tech.)

To be honest, most techs, no matter how much experience they have, should start with Core Appliance Repair Training. We've had techs with 20+ years experience say that this course filled in all those knowledge gaps in Electricity, Electronics, and Troubleshooting, which seriously upped their game.

Yet, the Core Appliance Repair Training course is also designed for the rookie tech as well. It's our most popular course for a reason - most techs in this trade do not have the skills needed to deal effectively with today's computer-controlled appliances, and this course delivers.

READ MORE ABOUT THE COURSES

Of course this varies with each student, but we can give you a general idea. If you work at a steady pace, doing at least 4-6 lessons per week, you can complete Core Appliance Repair Training in about 2 months, and the other technical courses in about a month each. On the other hand, if you are taking Core full-time, it can be completed in a matter of a couple of weeks.

Here are approximate time ranges for the courses. Techs who have a stronger background in electricity and are more comfortable in a learning environment (studying, taking tests) will be on the shorter end. Techs who are complete novices or need more interactive help from us to master the material will take longer.

Core: 40-80 hours
Advanced Troubleshooting: 25-30 hours
Oven & Range Repair: 25-35 hours
Refrigerator Repair: 30-50 hours
Washer & Dryer Repair: 20-25 hours

When a student meets our high scoring standards on all of the quizzes and exams in a course, he or she will earn a Certificate of Achievement from Master Samurai Tech. We also have custom "MST Academy Certified Technician" patches available for their uniform.

Earning Appliance Repair Certification at the MST Academy demonstrates a commitment to your profession and an unparalleled depth of knowledge.

If you are wanting to impress an employer, this will do it.

If you own your own business and simply need to impress your customers - you will.

How is MST Certification different from others?

Most certifications are based on simply passing a single exam. Master Samurai Tech's appliance repair certification shows that you passed dozens of quizzes and exams while receiving a structured and rigorous education in the essential knowledge and skills of the modern appliance technician.

In fact, the MST Academy is more like a certificate program, a growing trend in higher education for both acquiring and demonstrating skills, which typically indicates completion of a course or series of courses with a specific focus along with some kind of assessment that must be passed.
