training expenses

What do you pay for a training fee to the factory when you send a tech there for training? I've heard nothing, 300, 1000 is it that varied between brands?

TVH offers some pretty good classes (I believe). And starting this year there will be classes offered at the depot in Shreveport Louisiana. We are sending two techs to a class. $1000 as I recall for Spectrum and $1500 for electric truck.

Your on the right track, each manufacturer has different costs associated with training. Over the years I would average the cost of tech training to be in the neighborhood of $1,000/ week, per tech
