CEDIA gaining training with AWE and Armour Home, says partnership will make education more accessible across the country

CEDIA has partnered with AWE and Armour Home to expand the number of training venues across the country it can offer during 2015. It will also offer online supporting courses on its education website, allowing both members and non-members to complete training remotely.

“CEDIA offers an array of benefits to its members, with education being at the forefront. It is therefore important for our education to be easily accessible to our members, regardless of their location,” explains Executive Director of CEDIA EMEA Wendy Griffiths. “By securing a fixed training centre in both the north and south of the country, along with our training base at CEDIA HQ in St Neots, attending one of our courses will now be much easier.”

AWE will host sessions at its Alexander House HQ in Epsom, while manufacturer Armour Home will run training events at its Hindley Green facility in Wigan. Approximately twelve courses are scheduled to be held at these two facilities during the first half of the year, including An Introduction to Smart Home Technology, Introduction to Smart Home Wiring, Home Cinema Design Package and Residential Networking.

The organisation believes that its online training expansion will be a significant boon for international members, as well as aiding those who find it difficult to take a full day out of the office. Online supporting courses will include Home Theatre Room Design, Introduction to Control and User Interfaces, Cable & Connector Properties and IP for Technicians. Both members and non-members can access these sessions by visiting the CEDIA education website and registering their details. Once registered, the content remains accessible for up to 90 days.
