Becoming a computer/laptop repair technician??

Under_Graduate · 2015-08-10 10:14:28

Hi, I was previously looking into software development as a career path, but am also interested in computer repairs as, I think there's a lot of work to be had there also. Something like a computer technician. But I'm totally unaware of the route to go to become trained in something like this. Does anyone have any pointers…

Fixing modern laptops and pcs is very easy.
The hardeat part is the skill to work with small precision items.

If you want to learn about it build a desktop from scratch , get all the peripheral and software get everything together working and thats it. Fixing pc's is pretty boring unless you are thinking about creatively solving problems.

I used to fix pcs but the level I would go into it would way above the average repair person so it was and still is interesting to me.
