FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
UTS Achieves AV Industry Certification
Certified
AudioVisual Solutions Provider Program Signifies Company Commitment to
Education and Training
Atlanta, GA, June 1, 2004 - UTS today announced its
participation in the audiovisual industry's highly regarded certification
program, marking its commitment to education and training for all employees.
The Certified AudioVisual Solutions Provider
(CAVSP) Program is the industry standard certification program for companies in
the professional audiovisual industry. It is administered by The
International Communications Industries Association, Inc.® (ICIA®) and the
International Communications Industries Foundation (ICIF).
"A CAVSP designation gives AV companies a
competitive advantage in the marketplace," said Randal A. Lemke, Ph.D., ICIA's
executive director. "Customers of audiovisual communications and presentation
systems can be confident of professionalism and an aspiration to excellence
when working with these companies that have invested in education and training
to stay current on the latest AV technologies and techniques."
The CAVSP Program includes three levels -- basic,
silver and gold certified members -- depending on the percentage of staff
within an organization who have received individual certification. Individual
certification is known as the Certified Technology Specialist (CTS) program,
and consists of general certification as well as specialized certification in
design, installation, rentals or sales.
"As a premier A/V company, we are dedicated to
education and industry awareness," remarked Carlos Rivera, President for United
Technology Service, Inc. "We are very proud to have earned Gold
status with the CAVSP program and to be a part of the ICIA's Avolution
campaign."
Companies eligible for CAVSP status include
businesses that manufacture, sell, integrate, design, provide consultation on
or rent AV equipment, systems and services. The CAVSP program (formerly ICIA's
Certified Member Program) ties in with the AVolution Industry Awareness
Campaign that promotes the skills and talents of professional AV solutions
providers (AVSPs). To achieve CAVSP status, the company must
participate in AVolution by agreeing to 10 Standards of Excellence. More
