Where technicians
are actually made.
TTNZ carries the same training system that began in a real repair shop in Australia. What started as hands-on, in-person training has grown into one of the most thorough device repair training programs available — now teaching students across Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.
Built inside
a real repair shop.
TTNZ's training didn't start as an online course. It started in Australia, inside a working repair business — the kind of place where phones come in broken and leave fixed. That hands-on environment is where the training was developed, refined, and tested on real devices, real faults, and real customers.
A dedicated training centre was built where students trained the way technicians actually work — not from theory, but from practice. Real tools. Real screens. Real components. The kind of training that makes you capable from day one.
Students kept asking: can I learn this online? Not because they couldn't travel — because they trusted what was built and wanted access to it wherever they were. So it was built. And refined over five years based on real student feedback until the online experience matched — and in many ways exceeded — the in-person version. That same system is what now runs as TTNZ in New Zealand.
The TTNZ way —
no shortcuts.
Most tutorials speed things up. We slow things down. Because real technicians don't rush — they understand. Here's what makes our training different.
The online course
students asked us to build.
Students didn't stop asking — can I do this online? So it was built, then spent five years improving based on real feedback from real students. Every gap, every confusing moment, every question that kept coming up — fixed. The result is a course that keeps getting better because students say exactly what works.
We also solved the biggest problem with online repair training: you need something to actually practise on. That's why the Double Certificate includes real training devices and a full professional toolkit shipped to you. You learn on the same devices we use. No borrowing a friend's phone. No excuses not to practise.
We don't just train you —
we set you up.
Most courses end at the certificate. We understand that the certificate is just the beginning — and what happens next is what really matters.
Every lesson is a real, recorded video filmed in real time — not AI-generated content, not a text-to-video slideshow. You watch the work happen exactly as it would in a professional repair shop, taught with the proper technical language of the profession.
Every graduate of an Advanced Certificate — iPhone Repairs, Smart Phone Repair, or the Double Certificate — is personally connected to our trusted parts and accessories supplier — the same network professional repair shops rely on. We've already done the work of building that relationship, so you don't have to.
We built this because we've been in the industry for 15+ years. We know the hardest part isn't learning to fix phones — it's knowing where to source parts and how to price jobs. Our graduates don't have to figure that out alone.
Australian roots.
Regional standard.
What started in one repair business in Australia now trains technicians across the region — including right here through TTNZ. Our proven method travels, because good technique doesn't have a postcode.
Joe has spent 15+ years working in and running repair businesses. He has seen every fault, made every mistake, and refined every technique across thousands of real repairs. That experience is what you get when you train with TTNZ — not a presenter who read a manual, but someone who has lived this industry.
He built the training curriculum from scratch — starting with the program used in the Australian training centre and evolving it over years of teaching students of all backgrounds. From complete beginners who had never opened a phone, to experienced technicians retraining for new devices.
Joe's teaching philosophy is simple: slow down, explain why, build the habit. The students who succeed aren't the ones who rushed through — they're the ones who understood.
