Digital Signage Experts Group, creators of the professionally recognized certifications for audio/visual and signage professionals as well as others serving or invested in the digital signage industry, announced that all four of DSEG’s digital signage industry certifications will be available for the first time to be presented live at #dse2016.
The Digital Signage Experts Group in concert with Digital Signage Expo and the Digital Signage Federation will offer bookended live, full-day pre- and post-show seminars allowing DSE attendees to add one or two days to their conference package.
These will be on Tuesday, March 15, 9am –5pm for the Digital Signage Certified Expert (DSCE) and Digital Signage Display Expert (DSDE); and, on Friday, March 18, 9am – 5pm for the Digital Content and Media Expert (DCME) and the Digital Signage Network Expert (DSNE) .
Rich Ventura, vice-president business development and solutions, NEC Display Solutions of America Inc., says, “Anyone looking to grow their understanding and presence within the digital signage industry needs to take these courses. Each course creates a better understanding of the industry and helps create smarter, faster, and stronger technology experts. There are no better courses to help end-users, suppliers, manufacturers, and service companies achieve growth and develop stronger technology practices. They have strengthened our company’s knowledge base and helped us develop our people.”
Spencer Graham, manager of operations, West Virginia University, says, “To avoid failure, expert Gene Kranz of NASA fame, in his book ‘Failure Is Not an Option!’ makes the point, “Know what you don’t know.” In digital signage there is a lot to know, but also a lot that is easy to overlook. Get your digital signage team enrolled in the Digital Signage Experts Group programs to get up to speed, ensure competence, and to identify efficiencies and economies of scale that will pay dividends for years to come.”
“While all certification courses are conveniently available online, the added benefit of live interaction with the professional facilitators who created the curricula and others committed to professional development adds a significant dimension to the learning experience,” says Alan Brawn, co-director of DSEG. “Making certification part of the educational experience at DSE provides the additional opportunity of applying new learnings immediately while networking with peers and vendors on the show floor.”
DSEG certification information is available on ‘The Path to Digital Signage Professional Certification’ page on the DSE website.
The mission of the Digital Signage Experts Group (DSEG) is to advance the level of professionalism within the digital signage community by establishing Certification standards and providing impartial, agnostic, and vendor neutral professional education.
