Associations Focus: CEDIA Celebrates 20 Years of Excellence

Jan 1, 2009 12:00 PM

CEDIA is proud to announce that 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of CEDIA and its commitment to excellence in serving the electronic-systems industry. Since its inception in 1989, CEDIA has provided top-ranked educational conferences, certification, and industry professional training focused on the installation and integration of residential electronic systems. CEDIA members are certified under a strict ethical code designed to improve their business standards as well as provide exceptional service to their clients. As the industry and technology continues to change and advance, so too does CEDIA and the scope of its services offered. CEDIA not only stays on top of industry trends, but it also has continued to provide its members with the education and training essential to the success of their businesses.

CEDIA’s dedication to providing its members with relevant programming and continual education has led to the beginning of such programs as e-Learning and Crosspoint, which allow industry professionals the opportunity to both learn more and share their knowledge via online formats. These web-based systems provide easily accessible information and education for electronic systems contractors to advance their businesses from the comfort of their own homes.

While the last 20 years have produced plenty of challenges and positive memories, CEDIA is excited to continue its trend of excellence for the next 20 years and beyond. With numerous events already on the horizon for 2009, CEDIA is sure to celebrate its anniversary with another year full of extraordinary programming. For more information on upcoming CEDIA events, please visit www.cedia.org/calendar.

CEDIA Expo 2009 in Atlanta will be a celebration of all things past and present that have made CEDIA a trusted and useful source of information for more than 3,500 member companies.
