PSA Security Network, an electronic security cooperative representing security system integrators, held its annual training and conference event May 16-20 at the Westin Westminster in Westminster, Colo. The event returned to PSA’s home in Colorado after being held in Illinois for the past few years. For five days, more than 200 attendees had the opportunity to participate in more than 60 training and certification courses, attend forums and roundtable discussions and network with peers, all the while sharing best practices, observed trends in the marketplace, and experiences in the field. Many new companies attended PSA-TEC for the first time this year as PSA now welcomes all security professionals to attend the event.
Dakota Security, Sioux Falls, S.D, attended PSA-TEC for the third time and brought a team of 6 people that was mostly comprised of technical staff. To Eric Yunag, president, Dakota Security Systems, attending “TEC” is very much about interfacing with manufacturers and participating in the technical education tracks, which he says has proved valuable for his team, but also is a unique event on the business strategy side.
