What is a Registered Piano Technician?

Registered Piano Technicians are piano tuner-technicians who have passed three rigorous examinations that are held by the Piano Technicians Guild Inc. The first examination is a written exam which is used to assess general knowledge of pianos. The second examination is a "hands on" regulation and repair test to assess general skills of craftsmanship on upright and grand pianos. The third examination is the tuning exam. In all of these examinations, a standard of 80 percent must be achieved to become a Registered Piano Technician with the Piano Technicians Guild, Inc.
