The PowerHouse Alliance and CEDIA have partnered to expand the availability of CEDIA’s in-person training programs. As one of the first CEDIA Education Partners in the industry, the PowerHouse Alliance 11 distributor members are committed to hosting in-person CEDIA Training courses at over 55 locations across the United States beginning in Q4 of 2021.

PowerHouse and CEDIA to Train Technicians

“It is a common cry throughout the channel: dealers want access to CEDIA’s hands-on foundational courses to support both newly hired employees as well as technicians who want to advance their career through a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of systems integration,” said Giles Sutton, CEDIA co-interim CEO. “This partnership with PowerHouse makes CEDIA education more accessible than ever before and will equip technicians with some of the most important skills, including using tools, jobsite etiquette and safety, documentation, and testing.”

PowerHouse locations will offer comprehensive hands-on lab activities that are designed to accurately simulate on-the-job tasks before a technician heads to a job site.”

At Least One CEDIA-Certified Instructor at Each Location

Dennis Holzer, executive director of the PowerHouse Alliance explained that every Alliance location will have at least one CEDIA-certified instructor, offering dealers the peace-of-mind that their new hires are learning the right protocols and standards of work to be successful on the job.

“Apart from extensive hands-on training and a consistent curriculum offered by each PowerHouse member, we will also be attentive to creating training schedules that work for our dealers,” he said.

CEDIA and PowerHouse Alliance have a shared goal of hosting at least one training in every PowerHouse Alliance member location each quarter. Training programs are slated to begin in October of 2021 and will start with the foundational courses that prepare individuals to sit for the CEDIA Cabling & Infrastructure Technician Certification.

Advanced trainings that lead to CEDIA Integrated Systems Technician Certification are planned for 2022. Individuals can sign up to be notified of when training will be at a PowerHouse location near them here.
