The First-Ever CTS-I Prep at InfoComm 2013
As demand for the CTS-Installer credential grows, more CTS professionals are pursuing the specialty certification. Are you one of the CTS holders who is ready to earn the CTS-I? If so, hone your test-taking strategies at InfoComm 2013 in the first-of-its-kind CTS-I Prep course. Then, take the CTS-I exam right at the convention center. But, hurry, exam seats are first-come, first-served.
Where Do You Stand in the CTS Line-Up?
Here's a glimpse at what CTS holders said in our annual CTS Surveillance Survey:
They're planning on reaching higher. More than 70 percent of CTS holders want to earn the CTS-D or CTS-I. CTS credentials sometimes pad holders' wallets. Nearly a quarter of the people who responded to the survey were rewarded with a salary increase, bonus or other financial benefit. They earned it, they're keeping it. Some 95 percent of CTS holders say renewing their credential is important to them.
