From our Students

I cannot thank The Piano Technician Academy enough for offering such an AMAZING course for beginner piano technicians! I just completed my final exam and am ecstatic! I can truly say that I feel completely confident to take on clients now and begin my future as a technician in a field that is dear to my heart. Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!

Just finished their course! Very easy to follow online course that got me Certified. There were no local schools in my area, the closest would have been to fly to the other side of Canada for an expensive University course. PTA was definitely a more affordable and flexible option as someone who already has a full time career... The toolkit comes with everything you need to get started, and extra. Very grateful that PTA provides this service and continued support going forward. Excited to venture into this new career!

I just completed the Piano Tuning and Repair course and I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to expand their knowledge in how pianos function, and of course learning how to tune and repair! Each lesson includes different learning methods (reading, pictures, and videos) which makes the material easy to retain! This group is very helpful and encouraging and I have enjoyed learning from this Academy!

Both the amount of and attention to detail in every lesson is top of the line! They explain things in a way where even us who aren't musically talented can understand! I couldn't recommend the PTA enough to anyone even considering being a piano technician.
