The Dent Shed are running a 5 Day PDR Technician Training Course from:

Monday 4th October 2010 to Friday 8th October 2010

 This intensive program will run cover both theoretical and practical aspects of paintless dent repair PDR.

Graduates of this course, with practice, will become qualified to enter the paintless dent repair industry with the opportunity to align themselves with panel shops car yards and auctions or will be equipped to set up their own mobile business. Technicians also have opportunities to work overseas given the demands of major hailstorms particularly in Europe or the United States!

So what does a PDR Technician do?

PDR Technicians use special tools and skills to push out dents without the requirements of respraying a car. Most dents repaired will be as a result of a hailstorm damage but can also occur accidently caused by opening car park doors.

Is there a demand for PDR Technicians?

There is an extreme shortage of PDR Technicians – the combination of the Melbourne hailstorm alone and now the Perth hailstorm prompting a demand for overseas technicians to come work here. And yet a shortage still exists.

Who can join this course?

It is often assumed that most that will apply for this course will be those working in the panel beating industry. This is not necessarily the case. Requirements for a PDR technician include patience, independence, ambition to succeed, an eye for fine detail, steady hands, and a strive for quality. If you are ambitious and looking for a different career path, apply now.
