I don't know but I know Bowtech gives a course on how to service their bow etc. Don't know how long it is though.

well I ask because the local hunting store in the next city over just opened an archery shop about a month ago and when they did they did not have anyone in there that knew how to work on bows. Now the two guys that were working there are now "Mathews Certified" ok explain to me....

I'm assuming that they got a course from Mathews. Kinda kinda like the Bowtech certification.

Yes Mathews does offer a class, my dealer sends all his staff to attend this class. He just came back from there this past Thurs. himself. They have also been to the one Bowtech offers as well. Pse has an excellent school as well.

So it's just a few hrs and your done?? Certified?? geez man, and then shop advertises they have two fully certified Mathews techs. Wow. These guys are killing me. and that is for any company. I mean it's fine to have a class, but to hold one and then become a certified tech in one day, is this correct???

Eh, most of the "pro" shops in my area don't impress me much, so I'm starting to do the work myself. If I encounter a problem, I ask here, and keep moving forward. I'm like this with my trucks, I may as well be just as sufficient with my bow work.
