Learn Better With Books?

There are many options to prepare for the CTS exams.

You can find McGraw-Hill and AVIXA's exam guides at most major booksellers including Amazon.com, McGraw Hill and Barnes and Noble.

Exclusively from McGraw-Hill and AVIXA, the guides cover all current exam objectives relative to each respective certification (CTS, CTS-D, CTS-I), like how to conduct a site survey, develop an AV project scope, troubleshoot and repair AV solutions, and much more. Each chapter includes best practices, checklists, diagrams, photos, and review questions with in-depth explanation that will help increase your confidence.

The current editions, all by author Andy Ciddor and peer reviewed by AVIXA subject matter experts, are written with a consistent, clear and concise “voice”. Not only exam guides, these are also must-have desk (and field!) reference(s) for your AV office.
