October 25, 2016 – The interNational Association of Lighting Management Companies (NALMCO) has launched a new lighting controls certification, the Certified Lighting Controls Professional (CLCP).

To date, there has been no national certification signifying a “high level of general expertise in lighting controls technology, application, design and commissioning”, NALMCO says, adding that is why it developed the CLCP designation.

The CLCP is based on 60 hours of the education curriculum developed by the Lighting Controls Association’s Education Express online education system and certification is available to anyone in the industry.

Now celebrating its 10-year anniversary, Education Express says it serves more than 25,000 students, who have completed over 205,000 learning modules and 140,000 comprehension tests taken for education credit.

The Lighting Controls Association is an adjunct of the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and has educated the professional lighting community about lighting control technology and application for over 15 years.
