It's a specialist's job

Anyone CAN learn to do anything.

But...

Unless you want to get into the business of fabricating and installing Corian, this IS one that's better left to the professionals.

There are very specialized adhesives needed to repair manufactured stone surfaces, very limited working times, rather wierd joining techniques. With RV Corian especially (very thin or even a 1/8 inch veneer over plywood), unless you know exactly what brand, and when it was manufactured odds are you'll end up with a worse mess than you currently have. I have customers who fabricate and install these countertops, and I've been able to watch some of the processes. Corian can even be heated and bent - carefully! The neat thing of having it in your Airstream is that you can take the work to their shop and avoid a travel charge!
