Almo Professional A/V announced it is taking its "Fully Charged" E4 AV Tour to Houston for the first time on Sept. 11 and to the New York Metro area on Oct. 8. In addition to the same training, new products and networking opportunities that bring local resellers, integrators and consultants to the E4 events, the fall tour is launching two new hands-on "E4 Experience" workshops focusing on Digital Signage Content and Distribution and BYOD and Collaboration. Almo's HDBaseT Installer Expert Certification training also is making a return.

"We spent a lot of time pouring over the E4 spring surveys and learned that attendees want as much hands-on time as possible with new products and software so they can leave the event with actual experience using the latest equipment," said Melody Craigmyle, vice president of marketing for Almo Professional A/V. "The E4 Experience workshops will each run five times throughout the day and are led by our business development managers. E4 Experience provides a more personalized experience in a small group environment, allowing attendees to make the most of the time they spend at E4."

The E4 Experience is being held in two workshop-style rooms that each hold a maximum of 10 people per session. The sessions will focus on the following:

• Experience #1: Digital Signage Content and Distribution. During this workshop, attendees will learn how to create their own custom piece of digital signage content using Brightsign's BrightAuthor software and then publish it via a network-connected BrightSign player.
• Experience #2: BYOD and Collaboration. Bring your own device to this workshop and take the BYOD trend to a new level, Almo said. Attendees will learn how to share content in a huddle room and a host of other ways to extend AV to smart devices. They will download apps on personal devices to interact with Barco Clickshare, Kramer Via Collage, Samsung displays and other BYOD solutions.

Another highlight is the return of the 90-minute technical HDBaseT Installer Expert Program, which is designed for those who would like to learn more about HDBaseT technology, regardless of whether they are beginner or expert installers.

E4 Houston is taking place Sept. 11 at the Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel and Convention Center in The Woodlands, Texas. E4 New York Metro is taking place Oct. 8 at the Teaneck Marriott in Teaneck, New Jersey. Both events are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and are entirely free, including parking, for Almo Pro A/V's reseller, integrator and consultant partners. Register at http://www.e4avtour.com/.
