The THX Certified Home Theater Technician I program provides CE sales
professionals and home theater enthusiasts with an overview of the THX

THX first introduced courses in the 1990s,2 said Michael Franzi, Chief
Marketing Officer at THX. 3By expanding the schedule of courses and adding a
regional city tour, we will be able to support more professional technicians
and salespeople around the country, and educate them about the principles of
THX room design and value of product certification.2
