learned what and when something would be fixable by myself and what would need either further assistance or full replacement. I also became much more aware of the need to do walk around inspections, recommended manufacture/component inspections and scheduled maintenance. I personally would like to go back and take the Solar Course as “Boondocking” just for a couple days would reduce our expenses and open up more places to visit; IE Harvest Host. The Solar class is not “accredited” yet but becoming a true RV tech was not really my intentions to begin with.
The advanced classes appear to be MUCH more hands on and in-depth labs. Each student has the components and tools in front of them to really break it down. There are several contemporary RV’s on the premises to learn how to Access, Inspect, Remove and Replace components and to do actual structural inspection and repair of the unit itself.
I felt “I got my money’s worth” not just for that reason, but the confidence I have attempting repairs. It has helped me a couple of times since being on the road full time. I was even able to assist another camper diagnose a slide out issue on a unit he had rented.
I am still reasonably able to work so the certification is a legit avenue to employment.
Now the best part, the lead and best instructor is “Todd” from YouTube’s, “Todd’s Tech Tip Tuesday.” (Highly recommended)
I know this is kind of generic so please feel free to ask any other specific questions you may have!
