Almo Professional A/V Launches E4 Evolution Flex Experience One Month On-Demand Event - March 15, 2021

Provides Full Access to E4v Experience Until April 16, 2021; Train Colleagues and Customers, Earn More CTS RUs, Learn From Top Educators

Philadelphia, PA — March 15, 2021 — With well over 2,500 attendees tuning in live last week for the spring 2021 edition of the E4 Evolution (E4v), Almo Professional A/V, the Pro A/V industry’s most dynamic distributor, today extended the opportunity to learn and earn AVIXA CTS Renewal Units through the E4v Flex Experience. E4v Flex is a month-long, on-demand opportunity for integrators, end users and tech managers to access all three days’ worth of the spring E4v content, including the pre-recorded, career-enhancing sessions delivered by the industry’s most respected educators. The E4v Flex Experience is available to attendees until April 16, 2021.

“We received an overwhelming number of requests to extend the viewing period after last week’s E4v to give attendees the opportunity to re-watch the content, catch additional sessions, and share the information with their staff for training and learning purposes,” said Melody Craigmyle, vice president of marketing for Almo Corporation. “With E4v Flex, attendees can now fit the content into their schedules when it’s most convenient and streamline learning about the topics that matter the most to them, all while still having access to the full curated experience delivered by dynamic thought leaders.”

Here’s what some of the E4v attendees said about their experience:

“The E4v is so much more than a training show, it’s an AV multi-media event -- I look forward to seeing who is presenting at each E4v,” said Eddie Nowik, CTS, Inside Sales Specialist, HB Communications, Inc. “What I like best is the ease of training. It feels like you are part of something big. I wish I could stay in the E4v for the whole day.”

“The UCC class had a lot of great information about how to design the workspace for the post-COVID era,” said Brian Fry, CTS, audio visual estimator, APG Technology. “I also enjoyed Joe Corwall’s ‘C into the Future’ (USB-C) session. He broke down why this connectivity is important and how deploying it can help our customer experience.”

"As a newcomer to the AV world, the E4v has been extremely insightful and educational. I find the speakers and panelists engaging and knowledgeable. Glad to be a part of the E4v,” said Lani Harvell, AV Innovative Design.
