Please note that this course is mainly geared toward BEGINNERS looking to get into the world of microsoldering.  This course is not for those that have been in the business for a while now.  Our aim to help repair technicians and hobbyists get a better understanding of how to get started with their microsoldering journey.

In this course, we will teach you all of the skills needed for iPhone logic board repair. The course is comprised of 4 standalone courses combined into one full curriculum. The course is roughly 4.5 hours of online video content.  You will learn everything that you need to get started with microsoldering.  You will get access to this content for life.  We will periodically update this course with new repairs and information regarding microsoldering.
