I do not think my country does have these kind of practical training courses. I learned most of my knowledge about Television engineering and Computer engineering and most of the facts on electronics at Dirksen Electronics and Informatics (Computing) in Arnhem, The Netherlands. (In about 11 years I had over 24 hours of exams and passed all of them with fantastic results! But there were no practical courses given - which I easily would have passed succesfully too - , everything was only theoretical. Including Mathematics, Physics and other mandatory stuff.)

Hi Albert,

I do not have a plan to expand. By the way, just to check if your country have such hands On practical course?

Thanks Jestine, I totally understand why you're a very busy guy! It must really be great fun to attend to one of your 6 days training courses. Your classes look very interesting, and cozy too!
If you ever plan to expand your training centre to my country I sure would be interested to attend at one of your training courses.

Hi Albert,

Both of them came so far away is because of the hands On practical. Not only them, I had participants from Spain, Mauritius, Djibouti Africa, Singapore, USA, Italy, Tonga, Brunei and etc came here with the same reason too. All of them told me before they came here, they have actually done a research on the internet and could not find any hands On course in their countries. What their countries provide are those academic studies/theories with very little hands On. Besides, they do not have the half year to one year time to attend such courses. Although mine is a short courses but it is jammed pack with hands On, repair techniques, using latest test equipment, support after class and etc. This means after the 6 days training course, they can actually start the repair work. Another plus point is holiday and electronics center. As you see from the photos, i actually brought them to electronics center and city tour and have a farewell buffet dinner too. Next month, there will be participants from Nigeria, Brunei, Singapore and Saudi Arabia are coming. I believe these are the few factors why they want to come far away to here to take my courses.

The guy from Holland actually have business in USA. He actually running his own computer and variety of businesses and nowadays many customers have asked him to repair their TVs, power supplies and etc. He did try to repair it on his own but without a proper guidance and hands On it is tough for him to start. This is why he is here and bringing the repair knowledge back and start his repair business. For your information, some Airlines if you book early you will get a cheaper price.

Thanks Jestine.
I would appreciate that of course. But chances are slim I ever travel as far. I only have been to England once with a brother, sister and both our parents back in 1986. Traveling on a vacation with nothing useful to do and away from my electronic hobby is not for me. The comfort of home is something I enjoy always better too. (Hotel beds are too small etc.).
May I ask for what reason the guy from Holland (my country) went all the way over to Kuala Lumpur on a course at Noahtech? (with of course the famous Jestine Yong!) Because a flight trip is not exactly cheap, especially for a student. I wonder what his future plans are, being a student from Holland? And the same question I also could ask about the student all the way from the UK? No doubt the courses must be very interesting! I don't mean to pry Jestine, i am only curious. And Congratulations to all of them!
