"My aim in the new role is to combine the many talents and strengths of my colleagues across the EMEA region to develop solid, unified training courses that are in line with the US programmes. This will include taking into consideration the nuances of our specific region and the types of products and projects that are undertaken here," says Backler. "Essentially, I am going to act as a conduit for ideas from our EMEA trainers and as courses are developed, I will offer EMEA representation so that all our courses are relevant, open and exciting for everyone, while ensuring that the core themes of every training agenda are met."
"A central theme of the Crestron brand is reliability and consistency and with new offices and design and experience centres opening across the globe and many more Crestron dealers also being established internationally, it is important for us to maintain this," says Robin van Meeuwen, VP of Creston International. "Michael's new role will achieve greater consistency across our training programmes in the EMEA region, ensuring that all Crestron accredited integrators maintain a high standard of knowledge when it comes to installing, programming, and maintaining Crestron systems."
