AVMIs graduate program aims to bring fresh talent into the AV industry.
AVMI has announced its UK graduates programme, aimed at attracting and recruiting young technical talent into the AV industry after AVMI came across difficulties whilst trying to fill vacancies that require in-depth knowledge of video, audio network and communications technologies.
To tackle the skills shortage, AVMI altered its training and introduction plans into a programme aimed at technically skilled students who are looking for a placement at university.
AVMI has partnered with the University of Surrey, with AVMI first educating students from the Tonmeister and video broadcasting engineering degrees about the AV industry, with both teaching theories that can be transferred to the AV sector.
AVMI has offered paid placements to two students per year since the partnership began in April 2018, with the programme now being opened to other UK universities including Middlesbrough University, recruiting students who have finished university.
The graduates programme is comprised of three phases to give students an in-depth understanding of AVMI and the AV industry, allowing the graduates to concentrate on an area of choice that fits the graduate's skills and knowledge gained at university, with students encouraged to complete specialist product courses and to earn the AVIXA CTS certification.
The programme is also receiving support from the AVIXA Foundation, including an array of online training courses for students during the programme.
Partnering with the University of Surrey, AVMI began educating students from the Tonmeister and Video Broadcasting Engineering degrees about the AV industry, which both teach theories that are transferrable to the AV sector.
Since the partnership began in April 2018, the company has offered paid placements to two students interested in entering the audio-visual industry, annually.
Matthew Roberts, technical manager, AVMI said: The graduate scheme has enabled us to get in front of the right students and educate them about the many depths of the AV industry, whilst also providing student the unique experience to learn.
I'm excited to see our graduate scheme grow and see the AV industry and the career choices within become more visible to young people, hopefully to a point where students target their education towards a career in AV.
