Combined Level I & II Sessions
The ISF Level 1 Full Day Classroom Session is designed to quickly bring attendees to a level of competence and confidence in calibrating all the important performance aspects of current generation video displays and projectors. This course is appropriate for those not yet experienced in video calibration, as well as professionals who want to refresh their skills on the latest video calibration technologies, tools, and calibration techniques. This course is taught in the field by ISF Certified Instructors.
