Step up to CTS

"I found the AV Technologist test useful, and related well to the Essentials of AV. Plus, it acted as a stepping stone to take my CTS. As someone new to AV, it helped me learn some of the fundamentals and key principles to take forward into the main exam."
—David Beaumont, CTS, Project Engineer, AVMI
