Hungry for AV Knowledge? Check Out AV University!

Posted on 6/17/2020 by Legrand AV Team



As technology becomes the connective fiber of our new normal, AV is more important than ever. The increased focus on AV is creating a comparable rise in interest across all our courses at AV University (AVU) on LegrandAV.com. It’s hardly surprising giving the shift in our markets- corporate migrating from the largest sector in AV (per AVIXA research) to a completely different set of needs with mandated remote working across every state. Integrators are seeking to diversify their skillsets. Consumer interest is also on the rise as government funding promotes advances in new sectors like telemedicine.

 “We have never wavered on our commitment to learning,” said Jerilyn Veldof, Sr. Manager, Learning Experience Team. "It’s exciting to see the market respond to these times with such renewed vigor to learn. We’re here. We’re ready.”

Legrand | AV’s AVU provides online training at all levels of technology prowess across all our brands. We offer two types of course formats to suit your needs – both are completely free and feature educators like Joe Cornwall (a previous InfoComm Educator of the Year recipient) and technology experts from across our brands.
