Biamp Systems has announced the six winners of its second annual Biamp Education in Audio scholarships, a program in partnership with Syn-Aud-Con that provides individuals an opportunity to further their understanding of basic audio technology.
Each winner receives a scholarship that covers tuition for a Syn-Aud-Con seminar as well as reimbursement of meals and lodging costs during the training session.
Scholarship recipients:

• Joshua Foster, Engineer, Sensory Technologies
• Zeythel Soto, Technician, Advanced Techno Products
• Kerri Cooke, Engineer, OENE
• Fabio Banzato, Project Manager, ELETRO EQUIP

Biamp customers nominated 47 individuals to receive scholarships, based upon several criteria, including the desire to become more educated about audio technology.
“We’re thrilled about how many nominations we received this year,” said Steve Metzger, VP of Business Development, Biamp Systems. “Based on the feedback from last year’s sessions, I’m positive these six individuals will gain a better understanding about basic audio principles, as well as further their careers in the AV industry.”
Scholarship recipients are able to choose one of the four offered courses: Sound Reinforcement for Operators; Sound Reinforcement for Technicians; Sound Reinforcement for Designers; and Syn-Aud-Con Digital.
Nominees who were not awarded a scholarship will receive one-year memberships to Syn-Aud-Con courtesy of Biamp, as well as complimentary admission to the AV Math Online class, provided by the InfoComm Academy.
