For the majority of people the notion of ‘smartifying’ their homes is a bewildering, confusing, and expensive process.
There quite clearly exists a need amongst the general public for greater levels of education to realize the benefits of smart homes, namely improved security, safety & enjoyment levels.
Not only are the general public in disarray; many of the professionals tasked with installing these products are often lacking the necessary core technical and indeed business expertise to install smart home solutions that actually work.
In an effort to address these educational shortfalls, HomeMentors has recently launched the Smart Home Automation Training School. The educational courses included in the school are aimed at helping three main groups:
1. Smart Home Courses for General Public
One of the most critical things we’re finding at this point is consumer education. The latest course from Smart Homes School titled Smart Home in 8 Weeks Course teaches people how to build their own smart home from scratch in 8 weeks without getting confused or wasting money.
2. Professionals entering the smart home automation space
For electricians, alarm installers, and indeed IT companies interested in making money by providing retrofit home automation and multi-room music systems to their clients, Gerard has created a smart home installation training course titled Certified Next-Generation Smart Home Installer (NGSHI) Professional Program Training Program.
Aging adults living alone who have a preference to live independently at home
In an effort to help this demographic, Smart Homes School will release a course (Smart Homes for Aging Adults) that explains 10 smart home automation solutions and services later in 2021. Click Here to Register Your Interest.
The courses on offer at the school will grow in line with the impact smart homes will have on the general population over the next decade.
Thinking about diving into a Smart Home, then check out the Smart Home Automation Training School and start educating yourself prior to buying any devices.

Hi Gerald. I have no experience in formal electricity and home automation but I am interested in starting a career in this field. Is it feasible for me or do you have a package for someone like me? Advise please. Thank you.
Hi Terna,
Great to hear from you; so reworking some courses at the moment and will notify you of new releases. This course (Make a Living as a Smart Home Automation & IoT Installer) is definitely worth considering in the meantime. So if you’re not equipped with electrical experience; it does help if you have a basic understanding of networking. Hope this helps and here is the link: https://smarthomesschool.teachable.com/p/make-a-living-as-a-smart-home-installer
