Call for Classes!
Dates are now set for the 2027 Summit RCO Piano Techician Conference at Central Washington University in Ellensburg WA: March 22-24 Monday - Wednesday
We're inviting proposals for our March 22nd through 24th, 2027 seminar at Central Washington University in Ellensburg, Washington State. Classes with a hands-on component are encouraged so attendees can practice and participate. If you've got a practical approach to tuning, regulation, voicing, repairs, or troubleshooting you'd like to share, we'd love to hear from you.
Submit one proposal per class through our instructor class proposal form.
Deadline is November 30th, 2026. The form will ask for your contact info, a short bio, class title and description, preferred length, any hands-on elements, and what materials, equipment, or other support you'd need for your class.
Whether you come to teach, learn, or both, save the dates: Monday through Wednesday, March 22nd through 24th, 2027. Hosted by Summit RCO, we're planning a friendly, practical gathering with Technician's Playground and tuning tutoring.
Registration opens January 1st, 2027, with an early bird discount. More details to come!

Success!
Our 2026 Conference was a great experience. Lots of fantastic classes and lots of connections made and friendships created.
I've already heard from more than one person that the "Tuning Boot Camp" was very helpful in helping turn the corner on aural tuning.
We are currently exploring locations for the 2027 conference. Possibilities include: Salt Lake area, Vancouver BC, or the Banff Center for the Arts in Alberta Canada.
