SIA
ISC West’s education program has been re-titled SIA Education @ ISC to reflect the Security Industry Association’s (SIA) involvement in growing and evolving the ISC West educational program, the association said. The curriculum of wide-ranging topics and technology discussions are tied together by the theme, “Next Generation Security for the Next Generation Professional.”
The schedule is especially designed to allow attendees more time to explore the show floor. SIA added two new tracks dedicated to the technologies that are creating smarter buildings and cities, and helping business enterprises learn to use hidden business intelligence to drive bottom-line improvements.
This year, SIA Education @ ISC introduced a series of four sessions focusing on K-12 and higher education campus security. Sessions will discuss school safety security and improvements from different angles that integrators can benefit from, including The Future of Crime Prevention: Stopping Crime in Remote Areas of Campus; NFC on Campus: Using Smart Phones as Campus Credentials; Critical Incidents in Higher Education: The Case for an Intelligent Response; 60 Sites, 50 Miles and 5 Key Lessons Learned: How One School District Made the Move to IP Video Surveillance.
SIA Education @ ISC offers vendor neutral education, which qualifies for CE hours with many industry accreditation bodies. Certificates of attendance will be distributed to all paid conferees after the show. You can use this certificate to self-report your education hours for CE credit.
