Learn To Repair
Video Games!
It', no secret . . .
Video games seem to be everywhere !
The extraordinary popularity of coin-
operated video games has crea ted an
enormous demand . Not only for the
games themselves , but for qualif ied
service personnel as wel l.
Randy Fromm's Arcade Schools are a
practical , no-nonsense loo k at how
video games work , and how to repa ir
them when they don ·t. No previous
knowledge of electron ics or video
games is required to get the most out
of the six day course. Lab sessions al-
low students to gain valuable "hands-
on " experience. Late model video
games are used during lab and lecture
so Arcade School graduates w ill be
familiar with the types of equipment
they will encounter on the job. The
tuition of $400.00 includes all texts and
classroom materials. There are no
hidden costs.
Founded in 1980, Randy Fromm 's
Arcade Schools are the most respected
and often recommended tra ining pro-
grams in the coin amusement industry.
As a techn ical writer, Randy Fromm 's
comprehensive articles appear regu -
larly in the industry trade journals.
Now he has condensed his ten years
of experience into a proven Arcade
School program that has allowed hun-
dreds of Arcade School graduates
learn the easiest , fastest , and most
accurate ways to repair coin operated
video games .
