Based on feedback from members, CEDIA spent two years developing its new online learning portal. Visitors have a personalized dashboard with quick links to high-priority areas, including a “My CEDIA” area with a digital archive of that individual’s CEDIA activities and training, such as webinars, eCourses and learning videos offering short digestible insight on topics including HDMI, security systems and automation. Online training, resources and research has been expanded and a new company administrator function allows for easy management of employee records and transcripts.
Holiday Music Video Features Tuxedo Touch
Honeywell Security recruited Nashville-based band Telecommunicators to create an original song called “You’re My Heart.” The company worked with local Nashville talent to put together a music video that follows a young family during the holiday season, while sharing the capabilities of the Tuxedo Touch and Total Connect Remote Services. The entertaining holiday video can be viewed on YouTube, and the mp3 is free to download. Dealers can even use the video on their websites and social media channels.
