Salt Lake City, UT, April 10, 2015 — Control4 Corporation (NASDAQ: CTRL), a leading global
provider of home automation and control solutions, today introduced a new Associate Installer
online training program to certify entry-level technicians as a first step in their career
development in automation installation, programming and design. Our network of independent
authorized Control4 dealers now can leverage this free online Associate Installer Certification
curriculum to train their employees on basic installation skills utilizing Control4® Composer
Express, an easy-to-use mobile configuration and setup tool. Within hours, participants will learn
how to install and configure one-room home entertainment systems, as well as assist in the
provisioning of lighting devices in larger projects. The goal of the new program is to enable
dealers of Control4 products to deploy staff to customers’ homes quickly so they can respond to
the growing consumer demand in their local markets.
“Control4 dealers have made it clear that they want us to make it easier for them to develop
their employees’ skills,” commented Ted Haeger, Senior Director of Training and Support at
Control4. “We designed this certification to help our dealers build a technician’s basic
competency with Control4 products. Technicians can put their new skills to use immediately with
real customer installation work. Dealers can evaluate their employees’ technical acumen in the
field before opting to expand their training by sending them to Control4’s four-day course on
whole-home automation programming. Control4 is listening, and we’re responding with tools
and programs to increase our dealers’ efficiency and profitability.”
The new Associate Installer Certification comprises four classes:
• Overview of Solutions
• Infrastructure for Home Automation
• Building Basic Entertainment Solutions
• Controlling Wireless Lighting
The Associate Installer Certification works entirely within Control4’s Composer Express app,
and can be completed in as little as three hours. It’s easy for our dealers to get their employees
started on the Control4 certified programmer track by having them register for this new training
program for free through Control4 University, and download the Control4 Composer Express
mobile app today for free in Apple’s App Store, or the Google Play Android Store.
