Services — Technician Training
The Most Comprehensive Training Program for Miner Repair
A 5-part bootcamp for Whatsminer and Antminer machines — site operations, diagnostics, advanced soldering and hydro/immersion cooling — backed by our own 400+ page guidebook, with the differences between the two manufacturers covered throughout.
1 Week — Site Operations & Repair
Ideal for technicians focused on daily operations, fleet management, diagnostics, and general repair.
2 Weeks — Full Repair & Soldering
Recommended for technicians who will also perform board-level repairs, soldering, and component rework.

It's common for a student to repair 10–30 machines during the training. That said, every machine presents unique issues and every student learns at their own pace — which is something we actively tailor the training around.
Return on Investment
Training That Pays for Part of Itself
Training with ASIC Master is not only an education investment — it is a repair opportunity. Students work on real machines throughout the course, and a significant number of units are repaired in the process. The savings on what would otherwise be third-party repair costs can offset a substantial portion of the training expense.
Bring the machines that needed repair anyway
Clients routinely arrive with a pallet of faulty units and leave with trained staff and repaired equipment — the same hardware serves as the curriculum.
- • 10–30 machines repaired per student during the course
- • Repairs performed under instruction, tested before they leave
- • Skills that keep paying back on every board afterwards
