CEDIA: The Association for Smart Home Professionals™
Join CEDIA Find A Smart Home Professional
As the leading certifying body for smart home technology, we work hard to advocate for the industry and its talent. We know just how important smart home solutions are – and we want others to know that too. That’s why we always strive to educate the public, designers, architects, lawmakers, and other interest groups about the benefits of smart home technology. By working with those who build homes and those who live in them, we can reach our goal of helping more people live comfortably.
A big part of what we do is supporting smart home professionals. Without people like you, there’d be no industry for us to champion. We welcome CEDIA members with a wide range of roles, from smart home installers to business owners to manufacturers.
