5 Day Complete Course — Beginner to Advanced
Everything, in one week. Start with no experience and finish doing board-level micro soldering — the full journey from first screen swap to diagnosing a dead logic board.
Is this the right course for me?
Five days takes you the whole way. The first half is the phone-repair fundamentals — screens, batteries, charging ports, glass backs. The second half is board-level: soldering, surface-mounted components, and real fault diagnosis. You leave able to handle almost anything a customer brings in, which is exactly what a new shop needs.
What you'll learn
- Every common phone repair, to a job-ready standard
- Screens, batteries, glass backs, charging ports and ribbon flex
- Soldering-iron and microscope control from scratch
- Surface-mounted component removal and refitting
- Systematic logic-board fault diagnosis
- Micro soldering repairs, verified and tested
- Enough breadth to open a repair business with confidence
How the days run
Phone repair fundamentals — fault finding, screens, batteries, glass backs, charging ports, ribbon flex, all practised to confidence.
Bridge into board-level: the microscope, iron control and clean joints.
Micro soldering, surface-mounted components and real fault-finding on genuine faulty boards, diagnosed and repaired.
Inside a real training day
Not stock photos — our actual Sheffield lab during a recent board-level course: the micro-soldering bench you'll train on, and a student working at the microscope.
Train on it, then take it home
You train on professional tools, and you can walk out with the matching kit: the soldering station, microscope, hot-air rework, flux, power supply and testing gear the board-level course is built around — a full micro soldering bench. Learn on the exact equipment, then start earning at home the very next day — no guessing what to buy.
Questions
How many people are on the course?
One-to-one or one-to-two — never a big class. The price is per person, maximum two people, so you get real hands-on time and personal attention from a working engineer.
Do I need any experience?
For this course: none at all — we start from the very beginning.
Are tools provided on the day?
Yes — everything you need is supplied and set up in our Sheffield repair lab. Many people then buy the matching Mike's Micro Soldering Bundle so they can carry on at home on the exact tools they trained on.
