The Lighting Controls Academy has updated its most popular Education Express course, EE101: Introduction to Lighting Controls, now available at NEMA Academy here.
A good lighting design is incomplete without a good controls design. Controls may be simple or highly sophisticated, but every control system can be defined by the same fundamentals: inputs, outputs, programming, communication, and sequence of operations.
In this course–written by Craig DiLouie and given a thorough update by C. Webster Marsh–fundamental lighting controls concepts are introduced, such as inputs, outputs, and basic controls operations, followed by more sophisticated concepts such as common control strategies, zoning, system architecture, communication methods, documentation, startup, and evaluation of manufacturer solutions.
By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1) identify and select common lighting control strategies, 2) recognize and select common lighting control devices, 3) compare basic system types, and 4) ask informed questions when evaluating lighting control systems.
This course is registered and/or recognized by CALCTP, NLCAA, NCQLP (LC), NALMCO (CLCP), DLC, and the State of California.
Thank you for leveling up your lighting controls education!
