Certification for Vista Digital Consoles Offered

Harman's Studer will launch the Studer Broadcast Academy during July as a new programme to provide broadcast engineers with training and technical certification for its world-class line of Vista digital consoles.
The Studer Broadcast Academy will be serviced with the Studer truck, featuring two broadcast studios (one housing a Vista 9 and the other a Vista 5).
Training and certification will be held in multiple cities throughout the United States, with plans to extend the program to Europe in October 2011.
The Studer Broadcast Academy will include hands-on training for Studer's Vista consoles as part of certification modules that will provide engineers with proof of efficiency with the Vista line. In addition, engineers are welcome to attend the Open House sessions for product demonstrations, with no requirement to pursue certification.
"We have seen a trend in the broadcast industry where freelance engineers are taking on a much greater presence than ever before, which means there are a lot of engineers out there working on a lot of different control surfaces from day to day," said Keith Watson, Marketing Director, Harman Mixing Group.
"The Studer Broadcast Academy will enable engineers to get comfortable with the Studer product line, which will serve them well on projects where Studer consoles are used."
