Clovis, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/18/2011 -- Educating architects, building designers, builders, interior designers, and remodelers on ways to increase their business through home technology is a top priority for Clovis-based Hi-Tech Home. Recently, Jay Cobb, president of Hi-Tech Home, received the Registered Outreach Instructor (ROI) designation from the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association (CEDIA) enabling him to deliver multiple courses approved for continuing education credit through the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the American Institute of Building Design (AIBD), Interior Design Continuing Education Council (IDCEC)-governed Interior Designer associations, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI).

These ROI courses are part of CEDIA’s industry outreach efforts, designed to strengthen collaboration between electronic systems professionals and the design and build industry. As technology continues to grow and change at a rapid pace, the courses that Cobb offers help design and build professionals better understand the capabilities of residential electronic systems. The courses are provided at no charge by Hi-Tech Home.

"We’ve always worked closely with design and build professionals to implement home technology solutions that enhance living and work environments, and the Registered Outreach Instructor designation from CEDIA will allow us to increase the level of collaboration," said Cobb. "In the end, it’s our mutual customers who will benefit the most."

Local chapters of industry partner associations, such as AIA, AIBD, NAHB, NARI, and ASID are encouraged to contact Hi-Tech Home to take advantage of this free education. Courses cover such topics as hiding technology, planning for residential electronics systems, and home theater design.
