Formal school training is always a good idea. If you want to make a full time profession out of repair, learning all the instruments will also make you more marketable in finding a job. Apprenticing is always good. Having said that, the people you are working under (if starting from scratch) are trying to make a living first and can't always dedicate the appropriate amount of time that you will need to learn the craft sufficiently. At most repair schools you will be taught multiple ways from multiple teachers to approach and solve problems. At school, instruction is their number one priority, not just the left over time between repads. Self teaching is great but slow going. You learn a lot of wrong ways along with the right ones. Why not skip how not to do it and learn the correct way. Just like most of us have taken clarinet lessons to learn to play our instruments correctly, the same works for repair.
