There are other useful videos on the channel as well, but those are the ones we recommend to watch before the class to familiarize yourself with test kit, assembly layouts, test procedures, etc. The diagnostics can seem complicated at first, but often they seem simple after a few days in the class. We recommend to be familiar with the basics before the course to maximize the learning experience.
