NOTE: Day-by-Day outline is not indicative of the order the training is conducted and we are constantly adding to the list to provide the most comprehensive training experience available.

To provide a more conducive learning experience, and to ensure all students have an opportunity to work the equipment, classes will be limited to 10-12 students. 

All topics covered will be demonstrated by instructors to show the procedure. Then students will have the opportunity to get on machines and work what they have been shown for themselves. During this course, each student will fix a crack, polish a vertical and horizontal piece of stone, and hone and polish a floor section using one of our Hyper Grinders and/or a Swing machine. And, don’t forget, we will be available after the official end of each days training session for students that wish to get some additional practice and to make sure students have a grasp of everything we covered.
