Reddit reviews CTS Certified Technology Specialist Exam Guide

Not all of these are in our core training/ required knowledge, or related to our day to day functions as a university A/V department, but They are all available to my team for knowledge building and professional development. Additionally , and our job ladder includes Infocomm certifications, so the library is a little biased towards infocomm resources at the moment.
Books I use are

• [Master Handbook of Acoustics](

A Study guide if you think you need one

With the study guide if you read it front to back over say 2-4 weeks and then challenge the test you should be able to pass, CTS is a recongnized certification and they also provide lots of info on the website for education in this field.
