All-New
ACE Certification Maintenance Plan!
You wanted it, and you've got it! We proudly announce a brand- new ACE certification maintenance plan that includes credit for specific training courses offered by CEDIA, InfoComm and NSCA.
The new ACE Maintenance plan:
- Offers greater flexibility to maintain new ACE certifications without increased demand on the ACE individual
- Rewards the ACE individual for continued education through AMX
“Many of the courses offered by CEDIA, InfoComm and NSCA provide valuable, complementary skills that are not taught by AMX – such as rack building and project management. As a company, it is in our best interest to encourage the development of proficiencies that will make our customers even more effective and successful in the field,” said Michael Peveler, AMX vice president of corporate development.
He continued, “While CEDIA, InfoComm and NSCA have been applying AMX University course credits toward their certifications for some time, AMX is proud to be the first company in our peer group to reciprocate.”
Validity of ACE Certifications Earned in 2007 or Prior
All ACE certifications earned in or prior to 2007, will be valid through December 2008. The deadline for course and exam completions for the 2007 year ended January 31, 2008.
Maintaining Certification
Once an individual is ACE Certified, they must complete 10 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) each year to maintain certification. Seven of these must be completed within the framework of AMX University, while the remaining three may now be earned via select CEDIA University, InfoComm Academy and/or NSCA University programs. These approved programs will change over time; however, the preliminary list includes:
- CEDIA Electronic Systems Technician (EST) Advanced Residential Boot Camp
- InfoComm Installation School 1: Installation Technician
- InfoComm AVIT 211: AV / IT Integration for Technology Professionals
- NSCA CS S02 Estimating of Systems Projects
- NSCA CS D06 Broadband Basic
- NSCA CS D31 Discovering and Documenting AV Project Requirements
