It's time to sign up for our next Introduction to Furniture Repair course. www.fixingfurniture.com/introduction-to-furniture-…
Scott designed and built this distance-learning course to mimic a classroom experience as close as possible without the expense of travel and accommodation. This 8-week course provides video instruction, hands-on exercises, and weekly live video meetings to support your learning.
If you prefer a self-paced learning experience, that option is available too, without the video meetings.
