Watchfire (Danville, IL) has been designated an official AVIXA Certified Technology Specialist (CTS) Renewal Unit (RU) provider, according to a press release.

AV professionals with AVIXA’s CTS credential have demonstrated audiovisual knowledge and/or skills, adhered to the CTS Code of Ethics and Conduct, and maintained their status through continued education. They can now earn renewal units toward their certification by completing specific Watchfire education programs.

The first course, “Watchfire Pro AV Design and Installation Support,” will be offered as part of Watchfire’s Service & Support Team Training on Aug. 15 and 16 at their Danville, IL location. Attendance is free of charge.

“The AVIXA certification is another way that Watchfire is demonstrating its commitment to the Pro AV community, offering both CTS Renewal Units for completing our class and CTS-D Renewal Units,” Watchfire PRO AV Sales Director Brian Smith is quoted in the release. “These classes are open to anyone who wants to know more about Watchfire Pro AV and grow in confidence to recommend Watchfire solutions.”
