A cost effective initiative for both individuals and companies, the Passport to Education allows the holder to book as many CEDIA courses as they like, over the four day education event, and all for as little as £400+VAT! Furthermore, companies who book five passports at a time, will be entitled to a sixth, absolutely FREE!

 

“At CEDIA we are passionate about education and we invest a great deal of time and resource into improving our education offering and making it accessible to all. The CEDIA Passport to Education for the Home Technology Event means that it has now never been easier, or most cost-effective, to book multiple courses at what is the premier technology and education showcase for the UK residential custom installation sector.” Explains Peter Aylett, Director of Professional Development for CEDIA Region 1.

 

With over 120 hours of CEDIA training, the four-day education offering embraces all career paths to offer something for everyone. From entry level technical courses for new installers wanting to get a foot in the door, to high-level business workshop classes for company owners looking to keep their business on the right track; the CEDIA Home Technology Event seminar programme promises to be an educational highlight in the industry calendar. 

 

The varied and exciting education programme will give invaluable insight, across multiple tracks; with a wealth of new courses targeted at technicians, project managers and business owners alike. For those running their own business, courses such as Developing Business Operating Systems will give an overview into the organisational and procedural systems necessary to work efficiently, whilst Developing Marketing Strategies will highlight the essential marketing tools required to differentiate and grow their firms within an increasingly competitive environment.

 

Those looking to improve their project management skills should take a look at Project Cost Management to find out about the fundamental financial skills required to complete projects and maximise profitability. Successful ventures into the MDU market depend on a careful balance of sales, manpower, scheduling and financial wizardry, something which is explored in the Managing MDU Projects course, whilst theinteractive Project Management Forum takes the education track for a project manager in an all-together different, but valuable direction.

 

With its global product launches, major distributors and the industry’s leading manufacturers, the Home Technology Event will be the place to be for keeping up with the latest technology trends and, away from the show floor, there will be a range of courses for those looking to further improve their technological skill-set. With games outselling music and films combined in the high street, gaming is big business; Designing Integrated Gaming Rooms shows how, when properly integrated, a games room can help keep you, quite literally, ahead of the game.Whilst, iPhones, iPads and Tablets will be an open forum to discuss the impact of these emerging devices and there will be additional round-table discussions on topics such as Distributing HDMI, 3D TV and Cloud Media and Content Aggregation.

 

Whilst the CEDIA Passport to Education is undoubtedly the most efficient way to book multiple courses, CEDIA are also offering a 10% discount on individual courses booked by the ‘early bird’ deadline of 21st May.
