Fall River, Mass., May 26, 2000—
As a leader in the lighting industry, Lightolier has made a long-term commitment
to lighting training, firmly believing that education is essential to accelerating
the growth of lighting professionals and the industry as a whole.
To further this already strong commitment, Lightolier has developed a ground-breaking
on-line lighting education program for those new to the lighting industry.
Title "Lessons In Lighting", the course allows people to develop their knowledge
when it's convenient, without long periods of time away from their jobs.
The self-administered program is being made available without charge to
the entire lighting industry, and will include tests to determine the student's
grasp of the material.
"Lessons In Lighting" begins with lighting fundamentals, and continues on
to specific applications of different light sources, luminaires, ballasts
and lighting controls, as well as the lighting design process. The program
is available now, with advanced lessons to be added by mid-summer. All training
can be accessed through Lightolier's web page, www.lightolier.com, by clicking
on "Lessons In Lighting On-Line". Each lesson has been designed to be completed
in 20-25 minutes, including a download time of less than five minutes with
a 28.8 modem.
Lightolier has registered with both the ALA for CLS accreditation and the
AIA for CES accreditation for those who successfully complete the training.
Already a leader in lighting education through its renowned TechCenter and
other programs, Lightolier's "Lessons In Lighting" will help further the
company's reputation as a lighting pioneer.
