CEDIA (the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association) has announced that renowned industry expert Todd Adams is coming over from the States to present two, five-day courses at the CEDIA training facility in St Neots.
Todd, the author of the book Residential Integrator’s Project Management, will be presenting courses in project management and custom install design. The ‘Project Management School’, taking place 19th-23rd February 2007, is aimed at both new and experienced project managers and looks at planning and managing projects, developing a solid foundation in project management, preparing cost estimates and templates to gather project information. Other skills include developing a project scope statement template, preparing initial and finalised project schedules and planning for and managing project risks.
The ‘Designer School and Certification Exam’, taking place 26th February – 2nd March 2007, is aimed at technical individuals with some industry experience, or recent technology graduates who wish to become CEDIA Designer Level One certified. The course covers the complete examination curriculum, as well as applying the theory to real-world situations, with delegates sitting the designer level one examination on the final afternoon.
“We are thrilled to have an industry leading authority presenting two of the longest courses we have run at our training facility” says Wendy Griffiths, Executive Director of CEDIA. “Delegates have been very keen to sign up and take advantage of such an excellent opportunity to improve their skills and knowledge and learn from one of the best! Todd is greatly respected in our industry and the popularity of Todd’s courses at past CEDIA Expos is testament to this.”
