Apple already did have resources and parts for years but for only companies that partner with carriers like Sprint and T-Mobile, given I work for one of those partner companies as a repair tech. The resources and parts really only got more streamlined is all. As in the minimum training required now only takes a week at max to finish. With parts being sent OEM in either complete sections like for screen repair or say in more parted parts like batteries. For reference the company I work for is Asurion. Now mind you that is just for phones at the moment, laptops and such on the other hand require you to go to Apple directly.
