CEDIA ADVANCED MEMBER

CEDIA are the professional trade body for the residential AV Industry and have approximately 4000 member companies worldwide. Smart Life AV were one of the first 10 companies in the world to achieve CEDIA Advanced Member status in 2019. We have maintained this designation consecutively year after year and remain in the top 2% of companies who have earned this. 2023 marks our 5th consecutive year of achieving this accolade.

To become a CEDIA Advanced Member, a company must demonstrate a proven commitment to continuing education, customer service, and community outreach. 

We achieved Advanced Member status by proving our competence in knowledge via multiple examinations, recognition from our clients for exceptional customer service and our volunteering efforts in training Architects and Interior Designers to further develop relationships and growth of our industry.
