Control4 has announced Smart Skills, a new technical training resource for Control4 dealers that supplements its existing training and certification programs.
Smart Skills are short videos – typically less than three minutes – that demonstrate how to master specific installation configurations, program unique scenes and perform singular tasks using the Control4 platform.
Smart Skills gives Control4 technicians and integrators a path for learning how to do much more with the Control4 platform. With just the initial library of topics, integrators can learn how to automate a gas fireplace, integrate a ZigBee door lock, enable alerts to a home owner's mobile device, or do more advanced programming with custom variables.
The Smart Skills library is available now, with more than 15 videos in a variety of categories including Lighting, Entertainment, Comfort & Convenience, Safety & Security, and Networking. Included in the Networking category is a course specific to the Pakedge Router. Control4 plans to expand the library with additional training modules each month.
The Smart Skills series is available to employees of authorized Control4 Dealers and is designed to enhance the skill and proficiency of technicians installing Control4 – in turn, delivering more personalized experiences to clients. Dealerships simply need to create a user login for each employee in the Control4 Dealer Portal. Employees can then log on and go to Training > Technical Training.
