SHANDOKA TRAINING
Enrollment

Get certified for $99

Introductory price through 30 November, then $149. One payment and three months to finish — roughly three times what the material actually takes, because a deadline is the difference between a course you mean to do and one you have done. Your certificate and your test results are yours permanently; it is access to the material that ends, not what you earned.

If three months is not enough

Life happens, and a deadline that punishes people is not what we are trying to build. Continuing costs $29 a month for as long as you need, and your progress, your scores and anything you have already passed are exactly where you left them. Nobody has to start over.

Prices rise as the material grows

The introductory price holds until 30 November, and after that the course is $149. Figures, specialty guides and further courses are being added continuously, and the price goes up with them — the people who come in early pay the least the material will ever cost.

Discount codes

Codes are honored at checkout for community programs, workforce partners, returning students and campaigns. If a program sponsors you, bring their code — the price should never be the reason someone capable does not train.

Tools are yours to choose

We do not sell you a kit. The course tells you exactly what a tool has to do — what a meter needs to measure, what a crimp has to achieve — and you buy whatever brand you trust from whichever shop you like. A technician who picked their own tools understands them; one who was handed a box does not. Nothing in the course needs anything unusual.

What you are actually buying

The full curriculum

Seven modules from first principles to capstone diagnostics — the same material used to certify working technicians, not a trimmed consumer version.

A record that counts

Your scores and completion are stored under your account, and you get a one-page sheet to hand an employer — the curriculum you covered and a code they scan for your results.

Downloads that outlast the clock

Bench cards and reference tables download while you are enrolled and stay yours afterwards, and the error-code library and first-checks guide are free and public forever. Your day-to-day reference never disappears when access does.

A deadline that works for you

Three months is deliberate. Open-ended access sounds generous and quietly becomes a course nobody finishes. This one has an end, an extension if you need it, and a certificate at the other side.

Bench cards, printed properly

Every bench card is a digital download the moment you enroll, and it stays yours whether or not your access is still running. When you pass, the laminated set unlocks in our store: the same procedures on cards that survive solvent, grease and a dropped wrench, for the bench rather than a phone screen. There is no deadline on that either — come back in three years and order another set when the first one finally gives up.

You can earn the fee back by drawing

This course needs illustrations, and some of the best will come from people who have just learned the material. Pass the certification, draw a group of figures we accept, and we refund what you paid. How the drawing trade works.

The battery fire poster

What to do when a lithium pack is swollen, hot, damaged or burning, in a form you can put on a wall where people will actually read it. Anyone can order one — no enrollment, no account, no certification. If it stops one person from carrying a smoking battery through a building, it has done its job.

Shops, fleets and programs

Group and annual rates are set per organization and are being finalized now. Tell us roughly how many technicians you train in a year and whether seats or the unlimited annual suits you better, and we will come back with numbers and an invoice option. Community and workforce programs should ask about partner rates — training people who would not otherwise get the chance is the point of this program.

Straight answers

Do I need a shop to enroll?

No. Most people take this for themselves. You will want access to vehicles and someone experienced for the bench hours, and we can point you at options.

How long do I have?

As long as you need. There is no expiry, no cohort and no clock.

What if I fail a test?

Retake it. The tests exist to show you what to review, not to rank you.

Is the certificate recognized?

It states exactly what you passed and when. Shops hire on demonstrated skill; this gives you the evidence and the vocabulary to show it.
