HTE CEU Courses: Empowering Designers & Architects Through Technology Education
At Home Technology Experts, we believe the most successful luxury residential projects happen when technology and design work together from the very beginning. As smart home solutions continue to evolve, architects, interior designers, and builders are facing increasing pressure to stay informed about lighting control, shading solutions, home networks, wellness technology, and whole-home automation.
That’s why HTE proudly offers Continuing Education Unit (CEU) courses designed to empower trade professionals with the knowledge they need to integrate technology seamlessly and confidently into their projects.
Our CEU courses aren’t sales presentations — they’re educational, accredited, and crafted to support your expertise.
Why CEU Courses Matter in Modern Design
Technology used to be an afterthought. Today, it’s a core part of residential architecture.
CEUs help design professionals:
Stay ahead of rapidly evolving smart home trends
Understand the technical requirements that impact design & construction
Learn how lighting, shading, and AV systems enhance wellness and lifestyle
Avoid costly redesigns and construction delays

From luxury home theaters to whole-home lighting design, CEUs give industry partners the tools to create more beautiful, more functional spaces.
