Because of the hundreds of hours required to master the skills of paintless dent removal, PDR Training Australia has developed training modules to ensure trainee technicians develop their skills under a realistic work environment. Furthermore, our specially prepared modules provide flexibility and on-site training in the industry in real time events. Find out more on what is in our course. Even if you are in the TAFE system, this professional training system will supplement your skills in similar trades. Our research suggests that more and more panel beaters and also mechanics are re-training to have this as one of their skills in the workshop. One of the reasons stem back to the standard requirement for PDR quotes from insurance companies.pdr_training_images144 What incentive is there to take up a trade as a PDR Technician? The answer is simple – supply and demand! There is simply a lack of PDR Technicians in Australia. Even as recent as the Melbourne hailstorm in 2010,  approval was granted for special working visa permits for overseas technicians to come to Australia. Once again in the Perth and Christmas Day Melbourne hailstorm more overseas PDR technicians were able to get work in Australia. What incentive is there for companies in the automotive to train their staff in Paintless Dent Removal? It makes sense when considering a five year business plan to incorporate trends in the industry. The trend towards the PDR industry is already happening – not only in Australia but globally. Given the insurance industry around the world are looking for more efficient methods of repair, the demands for technicians should continue to increase. Recently, many people have applied because they have seen first hand what PDR Technicians are earning in the work environment. Very few if any career can even compare! What are the typical earnings? paintless_dent_removal_earningsTake for example a typical day in the storm. Each average dent for an average technician takes 2 to 3 minutes to complete and that charge is $60 – $70 per dent typically. On a per day basis, a car a day yields typically $2000 per day on average from what I have experienced! Yes it is a seasonal working in the summer months but there are no reasons of heading off to Europe and the United States with a work visa and earn during their summer period – our off season. Incidentally, I have seen $48000 paid for 2 months of work – for some that is almost a year’s wage!

Apply for training if you feel this suites your need for a change in career.

PDR Training was formed when a need arose for more technicians and training. This concept of training arose when it was realised there was a shortage of PDR Technicians in the industry particularly during the Melbourne and Perth hailstorms in 2010 and once again in Melbourne in 2011.

With a comprehensive knowledge of paintless dent repairs and experience over the past 25 years, as well as experience from teaching, this combination has enabled us to provide the most realistic and intensive Paintless Dent Repair courses in Australia. Our course also encourages contact and support over the following critical two years. Apply now and contact us for further information on our phone 0408020468. Jimmy Deguara establised Stormlink in 2006 as well as PDR Training Australia to cater for the increasing demand and specialised paintless dent removal training.
