Lighting Controls Association Adds Three New Courses to Education ExpressThe Lighting Controls Association (LCA) has published three new courses to enhance its popular Education Express program: EE107: Lighting Controls for Existing Buildings, EE302: Centralized Intelligent Lighting Control, and a newly updated version of EE300: Lighting Control of LEDs.

Authored by Craig DiLouie, LC, EE107: Lighting Controls for Existing Buildings introduces students to lighting control strategies suitable for existing construction, covering energy code obligations, rebate opportunities and application guidance. EE107: Lighting Controls for Existing Buildings is accredited/registered with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Continuing Education System (CES), which recognizes 2.0 Learning Units (LU)/Health, Safety, Welfare (HSW) credits; and the National Council on Quality in the Lighting Professions (NCQLP), which recognizes 2.0 LEUs towards maintenance of the Lighting Certified (LC) certification.

Authored by Steve Mesh, LC, EE302: Centralized Intelligent Lighting Control describes the basic technology of centralized intelligent lighting control systems (Part 1) and then provides application guidance (Part 2). EE302 is accredited/registered with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Continuing Education System (CES), which recognizes 4.0 Learning Units (LU)/Health, Safety, Welfare (HSW) credits; and the National Council on Quality in the Lighting Professions (NCQLP), which recognizes 4.0 LEUs towards maintenance of the Lighting Certified (LC) certification.

Authored by Kevin Willmorth, EE300: Lighting Control of LEDs includes four learning modules covering LED control fundamentals, wired control, wireless control and color control. EE300 is accredited/registered with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Continuing Education System (CES), which recognizes 10.5 Learning Units (LU)/Health, Safety, Welfare (HSW) credits; and the National Council on Quality in the Lighting Professions (NCQLP), which recognizes 10.5 LEUs towards maintenance of the Lighting Certified (LC) certification. 

Residing at the association’s website, Education Express provides in-depth education about lighting controls and controllable ballast technology, application, system design and commissioning.

Founded in 2006, Education Express serves more than 30,000 students, who have benefited from more than 205,000 completions of learning modules and 140,000 comprehension tests taken online, enabling them to earn education credit.
