Education
Industry education has been limited, but more options are becoming available. At least one firm, Platt Retail Institute, offers formal education programs, and provides various research reports (such as the North American Digital Signage Index and the Journal of Retail Analytics, among others), as well as a searchable article library. Another option is manufacturers that offer technology focused training (firms such as Black Box Network Solutions and Ingram Micro). Several other firms offer introductory courses and IT-based training as well. In 2009, Texas State Technical College created an associate’s degree in Digital Signage Technology, using their Second Life delivery system.
