Introducing Navigate Academy.
Navigate Academy is an online training platform developed exclusively for systems integration and related technology companies.
At last, there’s an online training program specifically designed for systems integrators and their technology partners.
Over the last decade, the audiovisual integration industry has seen monumental advances in technology and systems. With those advances come more difficult challenges when it comes to selling and managing multiple overlapping projects, which themselves have grown more complex and require greater coordination and collaboration among numerous entities.
Companies are struggling to align the disciplines of portfolio management (strategy), project management (effectiveness), process management (efficiency) and people management (performance). The Navigate Academy addresses all of these disciplines based on proven best practices, bringing maturity and sustainability to your company, reducing the chaos, drama and redo with your business, ultimately increasing profits and morale.
What is Navigate Academy?
The Academy is designed on discrete lesson plans presented at once a month. Each lesson plan brings a new theme – each containing a live webinar, an action item and quiz aligned to the lesson plan, plus a supporting podcast.
Live Webinars
The foundation of each lesson plan is the live 45-minute webinar. All webinars are hosted by Brad Malone. If you miss the live webinar – no problem! All our webinars are recorded and can be accessed by members on demand.
Project Management Institute Certification Renewal
Each completed monthly lesson plan will be eligible to receive a Project Management Institute® Professional Development Unit (PDU) towards Project Management Professional® (PMP) certification renewal or an Education Unit towards PMP eligibiity requirements.
Action Item
Each lesson plan includes a homework assignment and a quiz, based on the webinar. The purpose of the action item is to help you put the ideas from the webinar into action. Learn by doing.
Podcasts
In our ten-minute podcasts, we explore the theme for each month, and learn from our peers. We talk with subject matter and industry experts, who share lessons and examples about their businesses.

I’ve had the privilege of working with and knowing Brad since I began with AVIXA in 2013. Over the years he’s been an instrumental part of helping our industry succeed as a partner to AVIXA and to hundreds of our members. You will learn more than you can imagine with him and perhaps the most important lesson being, in his own words, ‘hard work, courage, perseverance and a willingness to take personal responsibility triumphs’. Brad and his team are eminently suited to teach just these lessons
Dave Labuskes
CEO, AVIXA
We see greater focus, obviously on the upfront project planning, risk management, communication, kickoff meetings, etc. Really setting the stage for a successful project early on. Really making sure that we’re properly planning well ahead of the game, so then it just comes down to execution. We really put a lot of focus on change management as well, and explaining that process.

Navigate has been instrumental in guiding us to build and develop processes. You also helped up develop certification testing, which has become the backbone of what we do. Today, our member say that the processes and templates you developed for us are better than the ones they are using in their companies. Navigate just nails it in your curriculum, and in your workshops. You’ve helped our members around the world embrace the processes you put together for us.
