Nope, no licensed mechanic needed to pull it apart or put it back together if you mean the normal rigging out of the trailer or back in. Gliders are built and certified that way, it is normal for them to have the wings and tailplane removed or put back in. At least over here in germany they do have a normal certificate of airworthiness and are subject to normal part M maintenance.

Found a site with a one person rigging assembly which shows some pictures and videos about rigging, however i haven't used any product of that kind, rigging with two or three persons usually takes around 5 to 15 minutes.
