The purpose of these courses: that each country be independent in repairing, maintaining, and even manufacturing musical instrumentos. The need is exemplified in this example: "In Ecuador there is no manufacture of musical instrumentos or equipment. Instruments, equipments, computers... everything that the industry needs comes from other countries. The quality and quantity produced by artisans does not meet the needs of the market” (Eric Villegas, music producer, Ecuador "El Comercio" 13 marzo 15).
Solution Create courses that teach Ecuadorians to produce and maintain instruments and equipment... everything that musical production in Ecuador needs in the quality and quantity sufficient to independently meet the market needs.
Who should attend - Technicians and artisans from throughout the world
Future conferences and courses - We want to take training to your location. Also there will be supplementary free and pay per view courses and components for the use of teachers of any course for piano technicians, and luthiers of any musical instrument and also for musicians, music teachers, students/families, and all who make decisions about musical instrument acquisition/maintenance.
Languages - please indicate your language preference on the registration form so we can provide translation as needed. We are currently planning to conduct the sessions primarily in Spanish with accomodations for Portuguese, Italian, and English. We seek speakers of all languages so we can offer this training in each continent of the earth.
Video taping - we will be video taping sessions to create training materials for future use.
Distance Education - your registration includes preconference and post conference orientations and communications including chat, Skype, and possibly other interactive media.
Multilingual Glossary of Technical Terms and Procedures - We are creating an interface so technicians throughout the world can input language that will make international communication more accurate for luthiers of all musical instruments.
