Evan: You should check out the "Randy Potter School of Piano Technology" course. It was developed by Randy Potter, R.P.T. and is a thorough and comprehensive home study course that seems to be well-known and respected, by most members of the guild and technical comunity. I personaly began my career in piano service with this course and highly recommend its use. More info @ pianotuning.com. P.S. If you would like to discuss this couse in detail, you can e-mail me direct: nathan at hammondpianoacoustics.com Good Luck! Nathan H.
