New Rewards Site Launched for Chief Certified Partners

Chief, a manufacturer of mounts, racks, and interactive solutions, has added a brand-new rewards site to its certification program.

Participants in the Chief Certified Partner Program earn Chief points when completing courses. Once they hit 600- and 1,200-point levels, they pick out rewards from among dozens of items including tools, travel accessories, fashion accessories, gift cards, and more. Chief Certified Partners can see the full list after logging into their online accounts.

"The new rewards site is another benefit for becoming Chief certified," said Doug Bauernschmidt, Chief's instructional design manager. "Not only do our customers learn sales strategies and installation tips while earning free industry renewal units like CTS and Cedia RUs, but they can also get rewards that help them in their business -- like high-quality tools, travel accessories, and more."

With more than 2,400 active users (more than 1,000 certified partners), the Chief Certification Program is designed to help dealers and installers improve business results, differentiate their businesses, and enhance their overall mount and rack product knowledge. Course completion also earns industry renewal credits at no cost; the program is accredited for 11.5 CTS RUs from InfoComm, eight CEDIA CEUs, two Digital Signage Experts Group Credits, and one American Institute of Architects credit.

There are 21 courses available through Chief's online program, with specialized training modules for a variety of needs and vertical markets such as corporate, residential, and education. Chief continues to add to this list; recent additions include Automated Classroom, Elite Home Theater, Control Room, and Training Room courses. New courses are coming soon.
