On September 12th 2019, we brought together 150 high school students, audiovisual (AV) and digital media vendors, education and community leaders from the greater Los Angeles and Orange County communities to experience the ecosystem of AV in the context of a world-class venue that is now poised for the next 100-years of next-generation events, including the 2023 Hundred-year Anniversary and the 2028 Olympics. This is a partnership between AVIXA, 2CPR Group, Bayha Group and Pier Collective, hosted by the LA Coliseum, and our production partners HIN (Hot Import Nights) Events. Our mission for this event is to facilitate career pathways in the Audio Visual (AV) industry utilizing the Coliseum as the focal point of the dynamic ecosystem offered by career pathways in AV. This event not only serves to bring our AV and education community together in a meaningful way, but this particular day was dedicated to kicking off the AVIXA Audiovisual Essentials course and certification that will be offered for high school students this Fall through West Hills Coalinga Community College online eCampus program.
