"The Women in AV (WAVE) are thrilled and honored to partner with Kramer Electronics in delivering a monthly webinar series for the women in our industry," said founder Jennifer H. Willard.

With the breadth of Kramer's experience and expertise in providing industry leading technical training and education, we look forward to delivering relevant and critical content throughout the year."
"At Kramer Electronics we believe whole-heartedly in education," said Malissa Dillman, training and education manager at Kramer Electronics USA. "We are on a mission to teach to as many people as possible the newest technologies and principles all Pro AV professionals should know in order to best design, sell, and install profitable digital AV systems in today's market. Partnering with WAVE to help us accomplish this goal is a tremendous privilege. WAVE is one of the most active and most important groups in the AV market today."
Clint Hoffman, vice president of marketing at Kramer USA, added, "We are so proud of what WAVE is accomplishing, and we also are proud that our training and education manager, Malissa Dillman, is one of InfoComm's two winners of the 2012 'Women in AV award' and an active member of WAVE."
