Currently there are three leather instructors visit here (Harry Hides, Pamela & Steve G Poulos) that provide training on leathers; hopefully they can provide you with more information on their courses.

I consider Leather Master to be the Benchmark of the leather cleaning and restoration industry and recommend you try it out; all other products should then be measured against it, including Chemspec and Leather Doctor®.

To be a leather problem solver I would pay special attention in these areas when we encounter a job prospect.
1] Identification of Leather Types.
2] Identification of Problems.
3] Proposed Theoretical Problem Solving Sequence of Process.
4] Practical Product Solutions to the Problems.

You could post pictures of leather problems and we will share our experience with you.
