Auto Detail Training Seminar Craftsman Program - 3 Day Class

Auto Detail Training for our Craftsman Program is a three day training seminar class that enrollment is limited for up to eight students. The First Day the student will be introduced how to start, operate and grow his or her new auto detailing or mobile auto detailing business. It is basically the same course that we teach for the Technician Program except it is somewhat "customized" based on the students individualized needs. Because the Craftsman Program enrolls a smaller class than the Technician Program the instructor can focus more on each student’s business objectives. Knowing the “business side” of operating and managing an auto detailing business is just as important as the actual hands-on methods and procedures.

The student will receive additional hands-on auto detailing training instruction and also be introduced to other profitable services that they can provide. Completely reconditioned pre owned automobiles are becoming the norm for the typical consumer today. New car prices are high, financing a new vehicle may be difficult, a reconditioned pre owned vehicle is the way to go. You will be able to provide auto reconditioning services to the auto dealerships to make their vehicles more appealing. Besides having these vehicles detailed the car dealers will want you to provide headlight restoration, plastic trim restoration, paint chip repair, carpet dying, interior repair and odor removal. Our Craftsman Program will prepare you for this and teach you how to obtain auto dealership accounts. The Craftsman Program is the perfect auto detail training class for new business start-ups for individuals and small groups.

Auto Detail Training with the Craftsman's Program is designed for students who want more individualized instruction. We spend an entire day on exterior detail training (Day 2) and an entire day on interior detail training (Day 3). The student to trainer ratio is 2:1. The student will also be introduced to additional profitable exterior and interior reconditioning services that are not part of the Technician Program curriculum. This auto detail training seminar is held monthly usually Friday through Sunday at our campus in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. All students that complete the course and graduate will receive a framed "Diploma." Detail King Auto Detailing Training Institute is a private licensed school and all of our programs and curriculum have been approved the Pennsylvania Dept. of Education. When considering attending an auto detailing training program make sure to ask if the institution is a private licensed school approved by their state and that you will be rewarded a Diploma and not just a certificate of completion. You are investing in your future, and only deserve the very best and nothing less.

Besides having the advantage of attending a smaller class the student will be given the opportunity to learn "value added" auto reconditioning services. In addition to teaching the student the proper methods and procedures for professionally detailing a vehicle the student will be educated how to perform rock paint chip and scratch repair, headlight restoration, plastic trim restoration, carpet dying, interior odor removal, cigarette burn repair and see step-by-step vinyl repair demonstrations. What car today does not have rock paint chips? How many vehicles on the road have unsafe foggy headlights? Many used cars that are being prepared to be re sold need these services performed and car dealers are seeking professionally trained individuals to provide these services for their pre owned inventory. Most people can’t afford to buy a new car as often as they used to. Purchasing a great, professionally reconditioned pre owned automobile is becoming a smart choice by intelligent buyers. Don’t let someone else reap the profits. Sign up for our program today and learn what it takes to be an auto reconditioning professional and reap the rewards!
