Why is HM Dent Works Academy different for a PDR fundamentals course?
While we believe PDR takes much longer to perfect than 2 weeks we do recognize the need for some in the automotive industry to have a less comprehensive course to add certain services to their current services line up.
With that being said we don’t take short cuts with your learning. The first 2 weeks of our full 10 week course is the same as you will receive for the HM Fundamentals course. The fundamentals are the same no matter what. Our HM Method will have you light years ahead of any of the other courses out there that are the same length.
We take the time to understand your learning style and adjust our course accordingly. We do not teach drilling or work on unauthorized vehicles.
If you are interested in chasing hail or working on hail cars this course will be good for you but the best course we offer for goals like this is our full 10 week program.
