Expert MacBook micro soldering course

Component level on Apple boards. You learn to read, measure and replace components, and to fix the faults a MacBook still gets written off for today.

What this course is about

A MacBook with no display or that won't charge gets sent away or written off at most businesses. Often the problem is a single component that can be replaced, if you know where to look and dare to touch it.

This course sits halfway between theory and practice. You get an explanation of how an Apple board is put together, and then you are the one at the soldering iron under the microscope.

How the course is built up

  • The principles of micro soldering, and which tool is for what
  • The main components of a MacBook and what they do
  • Practising on real boards under supervision, until it is in your hands
  • Recognising, tracking down and solving hardware faults
  • Advanced soldering techniques for the harder repairs
  • Real-world cases where you have to reach a solution yourself
  • Exam and certification at the end

You may bring two of your own devices to work through together.

Why take this course?

You will be able to take on repairs you now have to refuse or outsource, and that is work with a good margin.

Micro soldering on Apple boards is scarce. Few businesses can do it, and customers search for it specifically.

You no longer have to write off a device because a single part gives up.

You go home with a certificate that shows you have mastered it.

Why at Goed Gerepareerd

You are guided by a trainer who repairs devices himself. Our trainers carry out repairs every day, which keeps the courses up to date with the latest techniques. You can ask any question you like during the course.

The course is fully prepared for you, so you need to bring nothing. We provide parts, tools, faulty devices to practise on, all the course material and a proper lunch. You can let us know about allergies in advance.

Who is this course for?

For repairers who already have hand soldering down. Without that experience this is a step too far.

The questions we get most

Can I use subsidies for this course?
Sometimes the local council will cover the cost of training. Your case worker decides whether you qualify, and your local council is where to ask. Employers and the Dutch UWV also regularly contribute.
Who is my trainer?
We assign a different trainer to nearly every course. Each of us has our own speciality and field. To us it matters that the trainer always has at least ten years of experience in their field.
What can I expect after the course?
After the course your learning really starts. You have the knowledge and it is up to you to put it into practice. You are not on your own: you stay in close contact with your trainer and can message them every day or hop on a video call when you get stuck. You also get updates on new techniques, new models and new tools, and you can log into our forum after the course.
What if I want more support afterwards?
We always advise first looking at how you can develop on your own, and we recommend against starting another course straight away. Make good use of the remote support. After six months we look together at whether a next step makes sense, for example a one-day follow-up course.
Can I take any of the courses if I have no experience yet?
No. Some courses require at least five years of experience. You cannot take the expert micro soldering course without any micro soldering experience. Start with the basic course instead.
I already have some experience. Which level should I take?
Get in touch and we will put together a tailored course with you. That way you know you are making the right choice and not paying for things you can already do.
Can I take a course tailored to me?
Certainly. We have standard courses that cover all the basics. If you have been at it longer, we work out a plan together covering the things you have not learned yet. That is possible for nearly every course, except the CPU training.
