Hands-On Training: Sewing Machine Repair Classes

Sewing Machines Institute provides sewing machine repair training on all major types of sewing machines in Texas under the direction of David and Jeremiah Trumble. Live presentations, demonstrations, and hands-on application proceed from simple to more complex. Oscillating systems, rotary systems, mechanical, computerized, and specialty machines like sergers, long-arm quilting machines, multi-needle machines, home, and light industrial are covered. 

Comprehensive Sewing Machine Repair Classes in Texas 

Our live institute classes are small to provide individual support and customizability. Detailed notebooks provide thorough workbook guides to ensure easy reference after returning home. The 5-day institute is designed with intense instruction and supervised application, but the class time is only the beginning. 

Our comprehensive support system gives you the essential tools, full access to our massive online library, a network of 450 active technicians, and personalized support through video chat so we can see what you see and guide you step by step to success. 

The $3,800 cost of the program includes 5 days of instruction, lunches, a ($900) Field Service Tool Kit, a ($700) SMR Online Reference Library, a ($500) Advanced Technical Support Program, membership in the National SMR Technicians Network (Value $5000), and a Diploma. Graduates of the live institute receive much more support and access to the Apprenticeship Program and special training events like the Embroidery Machine Institute. 

Advantages of the live classes include live instruction and supervision, extensive resources to enable a quick launch of services, individual assistance, a quick return on investment due to a short training cycle, Graduates Group, and Advanced Tech Support. The disadvantage of the live classes is the need to travel. 

Personalized Support and Resources 

SMR Correspondence Institute also provides sewing machine repair training through online textbooks, workbooks, resource materials, and videos. The vast program resources include three modules: Pro Training 1, Pro Training 2, and Resource Collection. Pro Training 1 includes the following courses: Secrets of Sewing, Secrets of SMR, Antique SMR, Serger SMR, Embroidery Machine SMR, and Business Building. 

A textbook, workbook, videos, resource materials, and exam compose each course. The student studies the textbook, fills out the workbook, views videos, explores additional resources as needed, services machines supplied by the student, takes photos of them, and completes the course exam. The workbook, exam, and photos of machines serviced are submitted for review. The student receives a certificate for each completed course and a final diploma. The program is self-paced and open-ended with no deadlines. The $699.99 cost includes full access

to all online materials, videos, and resources, with phone and email support. Tool kits may be purchased separately. Sub-modules and individual courses may be purchased separately, as well as spiral-bound print editions of books. 

Advantages of Live Sewing Machine Repair Classes 

Advantages of the correspondence program include the freedom to learn at your own pace, no need to travel, access to online resources and phone support, and the lower cost of the program. Disadvantages of the correspondence program include learning dependent on reading and watching videos, servicing machines you supply, delayed launch of your service ventures (3 months to several years to complete the program), no membership in the National Technician’s Network, and no Advanced Tech Support by video chat.
