Apple Training - macOS and iOS
Did you know that... you are not using your device to its full potential? Neither are we. But we know that we can show you all of its features and help you discover the possibilities hidden inside it. Whether you are thinking about an iPhone or a MacBook, nothing is a secret to us.
Why learn with us?
Since 2007 we have been sharing our passion and knowledge of Apple products. We have already delivered over 500 training sessions for individual users, companies and institutions. Our service experience allows us not only to teach you how to use your devices, but also to share practical tips on their maintenance and troubleshooting.
We believe that the best way to learn is through practice. That is why our training is 80% based on hands-on exercises. Every participant works on their own device or on equipment provided by MacLife. This way you can immediately put your newly acquired knowledge into practice.
Our trainers are not only certified Apple specialists, but above all technology enthusiasts who work with Apple devices every day. They have not only theoretical knowledge, but also extensive hands-on experience gained while repairing thousands of devices.
Our approach to training
We tailor every training session to the participants' skill level and needs. Before the class begins, we run a short survey that helps us understand your expectations and how familiar you are with Apple products. This way we can focus on the topics that matter most to you.
We focus on small groups - a maximum of 10 people. This guarantees an individual approach to each participant and the opportunity to ask questions at any time. The trainer has time to help everyone understand the more difficult topics and clear up any doubts.
After the training, every participant receives training materials in electronic form, containing all the topics covered, keyboard shortcuts and additional tips. In addition, we offer 30 days of email support - if any questions come up after the training, we will be happy to answer them.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to bring my own Apple device to the training?
It is best if you bring your Mac, iPhone or iPad - that way you will immediately learn to work on your own equipment. However, if you do not have a device or prefer to learn on a different one, we can provide test equipment for the duration of the training. Just let us know when you sign up.
How many people take part in a group training session?
Our group training sessions have a maximum of 10 people. This number guarantees that every participant receives individual support from the trainer, can ask questions and calmly practice the topics covered. We do not run large, anonymous training sessions - we focus on quality, not quantity.
Can I tailor the training program to my needs?
Of course! Especially for one-on-one and corporate training, we are very flexible. Before the training, we hold a consultation call during which we agree on the exact scope of topics. For example, if you are only interested in working with photography or video editing, that is exactly what we will focus on.
Will I receive a certificate after completing the training?
Yes, every training participant receives a certificate of completion issued by MacLife. For corporate training, we can also issue invoices and documents confirming attendance for accounting or HR purposes.
Where does the training take place?
Group training takes place at our service centers in Warsaw (Pulawska or Grochowska) and in Poznan (Glogowska) - depending on availability. One-on-one training can be held at a location of your choice, at our service center or remotely via video conference. Corporate training is organized at the client's premises across Poland.
Do you run remote/online training?
Yes, we offer fully fledged remote training via video conferencing platforms. The trainer shares their screen, demonstrates all the features live, and at the same time can see your screen and help out if any problems arise. Online training is just as effective as in-person training, and it also saves you the time you would spend commuting.
What if I have to cancel a scheduled training session?
We understand that plans sometimes change. If you let us know about a cancellation at least 48 hours before the scheduled date, we will reschedule the training to another date at no extra cost. In the case of a later cancellation or no-show, unfortunately we do not refund the fee.
How can I sign up for training?
All you have to do is get in touch with us by email (serwis@maclife.pl) or by phone (22) 153-08-08. Together we will agree on a date, the type of training and all the details. Once the date is confirmed, we will send you a contract and the bank transfer details. After you pay the deposit (30% of the training value), your spot is reserved.
