We are pleased to announce more exciting news. Say hello to a new name in AV education: InfoComm University™. It has a new look and name, but the same renowned quality you know from InfoComm Academy®. Learn more about our education programs.

Also new for 2012, InfoComm International will be hosting several "Mini Virtual Training" on various topics related to the AV industry. These virtual sessions offer the opportunity to concentrate on a couple of key concepts, explore and then practice those concepts, without a lengthy time commitment. Mini Virtual Training will vary in duration from one to two weeks depending on content and will consist of two 90-minute virtual classes per week, typically on Monday and Thursday. Live classes will be observed via webinar, and activities and homework will be assigned throughout the training. Training sessions will be offered on various topics in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Has the New Year been treating your business well?
Results from the Fall survey yielded an InfoComm performance Index (IPI) of 68.0, indicating that the AV business during the previous period sustained stability. Does the same still hold true? You, tell us.

The survey is quick and easy and should take 5 minutes of your time. For participating in the survey, you will receive a free copy of the report.

2012 is already off to a great start! We are excited to have such involved members and look forward to seeing you in Amsterdam and all over the world!
