Lightware Visual Engineering has launched an e-learning resource for students and industry professionals.
The Lightware Academy, which is free and open to everybody, features more than 10 courses organised into three core categories:
- Traditional AV: the use of hardware components – such as audio and video cables, switchers and matrixes – to transmit and switch audio and video signals between devices.
- AV-over-IP: the processes behind sending audio, video and other signals over LAN or WAN networks and/or the internet.
- Room automation and AV integration: covering the seamless integration of Lightware products with third-party devices from network switchers to USB webcams, audio systems and other AV or IT infrastructures.
The courses, which range from ‘explorer’ to ‘expert’, include immersive learning experiences, on-demand videos and downloadable materials.
Lightware plans to add subtitles in various languages to the videos, and to launch a dedicated smartphone/tablet app for the academy.
Anyone completing one of the courses will receive a certificate.
Lightware chief executive Gergely Vida said: “Lightware’s commitment to delivering exceptional learning and facilitating open knowledge sharing has always been at the forefront of our mission. Now, with the power of technology and e-learning, we are making this content accessible to everyone.
“The Lightware Academy embarks students on a transformative journey through the pro AV world, to explore everything beyond our solutions and devices and gain in-depth knowledge of the entire industry.”
