Apply for HTA Certification Here

 

Currently, HTA Certification is available in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The requirements for USA and Canadian integrators is listed below. If you are an integrator in the United Kingdom, click here.

If you meet the HTA’s rigorous standards of excellence, you will be in the enviable position of being amongst the best integration firms in the industry. Use the HTA Certified distinction to legitimately disqualify from consideration the 85% + integrators in the market that routinely give clients poor technology experiences. The HTA Certification requirements are a compilation of policies and company attributes as defined by the HTA, industry professionals, and its Board of Advisors; the attributes that experience has shown to correlate with happy homeowners.

The application will ask for details about your company, including customer service policies, systems offered, industry certifications held, the amount and size of projects completed within the past 36 months, and more. The last step of the application process is entering your payment information (scroll below to see the application fee and certification dues *).

The following items are prerequisites to be considered for HTA Certification:

  • ownership and management team must have 3+ years of successful
    business performance
  • have a license if required by your locale
  • must be located in the USA, Canada, or the United Kingdom
  • be bonded if required by your municipality
  • must at least $1M of liability insurance
  • must have worker’s compensation if required in your location
  • if your primary business is not residential low-voltage systems (specifically audio/video & controls), you must have a dedicated low-voltage team within your company
  • must have solid customer service and aftercare policies
  • must be in good standing with manufacturers and local industry professionals (reps, service providers, etc.) and local competitors
  • must offer professional-grade networks (or higher) on all projects
  • must not have any current tax liens
