Become a Digital Signage Certified Expert in Just One Day

LobbyPOP, in association with the Digital Signage Experts Group (DSEG) and the School of Sign Arts (SOSA) community is announcing an educational opportunity called the Digital Signage Certified Experts (DSCE) program produced by DSEG. The heart of the SOSA-Digital Signage Certified Expert (S-DSCE) program is a one-day digital signage certification web course that is self-directed, with complete documentation of every chapter. You can start and stop, and resume the 8-hour course on your own schedule. This solution provides best value for a very low fee, with on-demand access to practice and learn all through the convenience of a standard web browser. Regardless of your experience level, be it beginner or highly qualified professional, the course content will enhance your skill set.

This comprehensive curriculum (listed right) will give you the valuable DSCE credentials, but more importantly, will give you the knowledge and confidence to add this technology to your visual communications portfolio for your clients.

Sign designers, installers and service providers may understand a part of the digital signage technology — but cannot see the full picture of the display, network and content required. A casual glance at a digital sign reveals little about a combination of hardware and software that assembles media files, positions them on the screen, sequences their playback, manages a cohesive schedule of events and even -for larger digital signage networks- delivers the monitoring and diagnostic tools to identify problems and correct problems from a central management center. In order to truly succeed in this space, a solution provider must understand all the disparate parts that comprise a digital signage network, and understand how to properly sell the value in that network to the customer. More than 4700 individuals have become certified in the DSCE program and can now access LobbyPOP products and services to the trade.
