In the latest episode of AV Trade Talk podcast, I'm joined by Daryl Friedman, Global CEO and President of CEDIAI, the Custom Electronic Design and Integration Association, to talk about the association's efforts to establish a Technology Integrator SOC occupational code.
Why is this important? Smart Home Professionals, or Technology Integrators, are currently misclassified as a subset of the electrical trade within the SOC system. In the next revision to the SOC system, our community feels it is vital Technology Integrators are recognized with a separate SOC occupational code. A Technology Integrator’s skill set and training is more diverse than other trades, with specialized skills required to work with technology throughout the home. A vital step for the important work done by Technology Integrators is to establish a separate SOC occupational code in the SOC system revision, which is open for possible revision in 2028.
Tune in to learn more and if you are compelled, our industry would appreciate your support!
